Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on October 6, 1819 with a supporter, on August 29, 1842 the arms were granted with the supporter now on the shield and new arms were granted on November 4, 1986.
The old arms show St. Amelberge, the local patron saint, standing on a fish (her symbol) and holding a small shield with the arms of the Duchy of Brabant. The arms are based on the only known seal of the village, dating from the 18th century.
The arms from 1819
The arms from 1842
In the new arms the composition of saint and fish is placed behind the shield, and the shield itself is made up of the arms or part of the arms of the rulers of the four other villages.
The first quarter represents Pulderbos and show the arms of the Van den Steene family, Lords of Pulderbos in the 18th century.
The second quarter represents Pulle, but this quarter is not taken from the old arms of Pulle, but shows the arms of the Ursel family. These were the last Lords of Pulle.
The third quarter represents Massenhoven and shows the arms of the Cannart d'Hamale family, Lord of Massenhoven in the 18th century.
The fourth quarter represents Viersel and shows the complex arms of the De Villegas family. The family acquired the village in 1672 and remaiend Lords of Viersel until 1799.
