Official blazon

D'or à un arbre au naturel terrasse de sinople, chargé et abîme d'un écu écartelé; aux 1 et 4. burelé d'or et de gueules de dix pièces (Looz), aux 2 et 3 d'argent à deux fasces de sable (Diest) et sur le tout d'hermine à deux fasces de gueules (Coswarem).

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on October 28, 1982.

The arms are based on the seal of the village from 1785, which showed a canting linden tree (Tilleul). The small shield shows the arms of Guillaume-Joseph, Count of Loon, last Lord of Landelies in the late 18th century.
