Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on July 21, 1923.

The arms are those of Nicolas du Rondeau, Lord of Péronnes. Until 1629 the village used a seal with a double-headed eagle. In 1629 Nicolas du Rondeau changed the seal. Even though the village changed hands a few deceased later, the seal remained in use for a longer period of time.

The arms in the Koffie Hag/Café Hag albums +/- 1930
