Official blazon

Van zilver met een vechtende haan van sabel, gebekt, gebaard, gekamd en gepoot van keel, het schild getopt met een kroon met 15 parels waarvan drie verheven.

Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on January 16, 1953.

The arms show a canting rooster for the Lords of Ruisbroek from 1738-1793, the family Lecocq ('the rooster'). The local council already used the arms on its seal in 1757, but the municipality never applied for arms prior to 1951.
