The arms are identical to the arms of [[:Category:Scotland]]. The reason for this is not quite sure, but the fact is that the arms were taken from the older Chapter (or Cathedral Chapter) of Sint-Rombouts in the city. Saint Rombouts (in Latin S. Rumoldus) is the patron saint of the city and was an Irish monk, who was killed near Mechelen in 775. In medieval times Irish monks were also called Scotii, and hence later the arms of Scotland were taken as arms for the saint. | The arms are identical to the arms of [[:Category:Scotland|Scotland]].

Another story in the 17th century was that St. Rombouts was a son of a Scottish King and thus his arms were identical to the Scottish arms. | Another story in the 17th century was that St. Rombouts was a son of a Scottish King and thus his arms were identical to the Scottish arms. | ||
