municipalitiescoat-of-armssaintreligious
Hjørring's coat of arms features Saint Catherine, the city's patron saint. The saint first appears in a seal known since 1469, though the style indicates a 14th-century origin. The current design has been used since 1974.
Hjørring is one of the oldest towns in Denmark, with archaeological finds suggesting continuous settlement since the Iron Age, and it was an important Viking Age trading post.
