Origin/meaning

The arms were granted in 1968.

The three trunks symbolise the three large oak trees that used to be in the municipality: Storkeegen, Snoegen and the Kongeegen. The horn is derived from the historical seal of the Horn district, and was a canting element. Jægerspris historically belonged to Horn.
