The drinking horn depicting coat of arms of Hämeenkyrö was designed by Gustaf von Numers and it was confirmed in 1954.[6] After the wars, the evacuated Karelian population from Otradnoye (Pyhäjärvi) was mostly settled in Hämeenkyrö.[7]

Results of the 2021 Finnish municipal elections, resulted in the True Finns being the largest group on the Hämeenkyrö council, in Hämeenkyrö.[8]

The name Hämeenkyrö comes from Finnish words "Häme" and "kyrö", which together mean a craggy and thicketed area located in the Tavastia region.
