Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on November 15, 1996.

The arms show on the right half an aok tree with acorns, which is derived from the historical seal of the Cambs village council, which has been used until the 19th century. The five fish in the left half symbolise the lakes in the municipality, fisheries in general as well as the five villages in the municipality.
