Färgelanda Municipality, Municipality in Västra Götaland County, Sweden

Färgelanda Municipality is a municipality in Västra Götaland in western Sweden. The area includes forests, lakes, and moorland typical of this region.

The municipality was formed in 1974 through a merger of several former communities, including Högsäter and Ödeborg, which had been incorporated earlier. This consolidation shaped the administrative area as it exists today.

The coat of arms shows a black four-toothed harrow with a draw ring in the upper left and lower right corners, on a silver field. Färgelanda took over the arms of Valbo härad, confirmed by King Gustaf VI Adolf's government in 1968 and registered with the Patent and Registration Office in 1980. The image comes from a seal of the hundred.

The area is well suited for outdoor activities, with walking trails, lakes for swimming and fishing, and the Kroppefjäll nature reserve. Visitors should come prepared for changeable weather typical of this northern region.

The rock carvings at Ödeborg stand beside Brötegården Museum, and around 140 Iron Age grave fields lie scattered across the municipality. Ödeborg's Fornsal, part museum and part folk museum, holds more than 6,000 objects collected in Dalsland over the last millennia.
