BRAINE-LE-CHÂTEAU
Province : Brabant wallon
Additions : 1977 Wauthier-Braine
Official blazon
- (1923) Ecartelé aux 1 et 4 d'ot à trois huchets de gueules virolés d'argent, au 2 de sable au lion d'argent, at 3 d'hermine à la bande de gueules chargée de trois coquilles d'or posées dans le sens de la bande; l'écu sommé d'un heaume posé de profil et entouré du collier de la Toison d'Or.
- (1991) Ecartelé aux 1 et 4 d'or à trois huchets de gueules virolés d'argent, aux 2 et 3 d'argent à deux chevrons de sable.
Origin/meaning
The previous arms were granted on July 21, 1923, the new arms on December 18, 1991.
The old arms are based on a 16th century seal of the town, which showed the arms of Martin van Horn(e), Lord of Braine-le-Château. The first and fourth quarter show the arms of the County of Horn, the meaning of the other quarters I don't know.
In the new arms the arms of Horn are combined with the two chevrons of the arms of the Abbey of Wauthier-Braine.
