The arms of Vianden are among the oldest in Luxembourg. The oldest known arms of Counts of Vianden date from the 13<sup>th</sup> century and show a shield of red, with a silver bordure. In 1288 Godefroid 1st adopted new arms, based on the arms of the Perweys family, as his mother was a descendant of the Perweys family (who were related to the Dukes of Brabant). The Perweys arms are identical to the arms of Vianden. | The arms of Vianden are among the oldest in Luxembourg.
