HeraldryEdit
Kronoberg was formally granted its arms in 1944. However, use of the arms was already an established practice. It is a variation of the arms of Småland. Blazon: "In a field of gold on a green three tipped mountain, a red lion with blue armament stands upright, holding with both front paws a vertically aligned red crossbow with a black bow and arrow of silver."
