Blazon: På grøn grunn ei skråstilt sølv klubbe. In English: Vert a club
argent in bend.
Approved by the royal resolution of 4 March 1988 after a drawing by Amund Rudi.
The
municipal web site explain that "it should remind the club of Kolbein the
Strong, a powerful westerner in the army of King Olav Haraldsson (later St.
Olav), in 1021 again the ruler Dale-Gudbrand on Hundorp. This meeting is known
from Snorre (Eddas).
http://www.ngw.nl/heraldrywiki/index.php?title=S%C3%B8r-Fron explains a bit
more of the historical event - The arms show the club that smashed to pieces the
statue of the god Thor standing at Hundorp.
