Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on May 28, 1956 and again without external ornaments on December 18, 1991.

The arms from 1956

The arms are those of the last Lords of Profondeville, the Harscamp family. The 1956 arms show also the supporters, crest and banners, which were not considered appropriate for the new municipality after 1977.
