Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on June 26, 2003.

The arms show the typical church tower of the local church. The tower also symbolises the fact that the village has been the main parish of the region for centuries. The fleur-de-lis is the symbol of St. Mary, to whom the church is dedicated. The name Hürup means 'village on high ground', which is symbolised by only showing the top of the chhurch tower. The two trefoils symbolise the villages of Hürup and Weseby. The trefoils and the green colour also symbolise agriculture and nature.
