Coat of arms of Risør
text:
The Coat of arms of Risør was approved by King Oscar II of Norway on 18 July 1891. It depicts a fortification protruding from the sea. This fortification is a symbol of Holmen battery which was built in 1788 and manned during the Napoleonic wars of 1807 to 1814. The coat of arms was approved in a very unusual way as it was first used as a decoration on the dinner menus used for the King's visit to Risør in 1891. During the course of dinner the king approved the design by writing Våbnet approbere
