The municipality of Vordingborg (46,187 inhabitants in 2018; 62,100 ha) was
established in 2007 as the merger of the former municipalities of Langeb�k, M�n,
Pr�st� and Vordingborg.
The arms feature a flying wild goose, symbolizing
an individual in a large community with opportunities to move wherever it wants
- dynamics, mobility, energy and activity. The wings of the goose for a "V", for
"Vordingborg". The white triangle symbolizes M�ns Klint, a 6 km stretch of chalk
cliffs along the eastern coast of the island of M�n, while the green triangle
represents G�set�rnet (Goose Tower), the last remaining part of the castle of
Vordingborg (14th century), which included nine towers. The tower's spire is
topped by a golden goose, last changed in 1871.
The blue color alludes to
the municipality's coastline and waterways. Green represents the natural
environment of the municipality.
