HOOGSTRATEN
Province : Antwerpen
Additions : 1977 Meer, Meerle, Minderhout, Wortel
Official blazon
- (1819) Van rood beladen met een paal van zilver het schild gedekt met een gouden kroon.
- (1838) Een rood veld met eenen zilveren lynregten pael, het wapen gedekt met eene gouden kroon.
- (1986) In keel een paal van zilver. Het schild getopt met een prinsenhoed.
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on October 20, 1819, confirmed on December 31, 1838 and again after the merger with the other municipalities on July 1, 1986.
The arms are derived from the arms of the local council. In 1316 Jan van Cuijck granted Hoogstraten a council, which was entitled to use its own seal. The oldest remaining seal dates from the 17th century, but is most likely older. The seal already showed the pale with the crown. The pale is derived from the arms of the Lalaing family, Lords of Hoogstraten from 1506 until the early 18th century.
