Blazon: I svart 17 gull triangler - 5.5.3.3.1.
In English: Sable seventeen triangles or, five - five - three - three - one.
Approved by the royal resolution of 6 August 1976 after a drawing by Harald Hallstensen. [c2j87]
The Oppegård history society web site has a story on its origin.
The motto of the design was "Svartskog – et tre for hver middelaldergård" i.e. a three for each of the medieval farms in the "Black forest". Each of the triangles represents a "tuntre" - a warden tree of a farm housing its warden spirits. It provides a list of the farms: Bålerud, Dal, Ekornrud, Greverud Vestre, Greverud Østre, Grønmo, Hvitebjørn, Kullebund, Kurud, Li, Oppegård Søndre, Oppegård Vestre, Oppegård Østre, Ormerud, Sjødal, Sætre, Vassbonn.
One of the medieval farms is not included in the list and the count - Fløysbonn, that was historically part of the Aker municipality, until 1948 when it became part of Oppegård, when majority of Aker was joined to Oslo, north of Oppegård.
