Official blazon

• (1819) Van lazuur beladen met de moeder Gods houdende in hare regterhand een scepter en in de linkerarm het kindeke Jezus alles van goud.
• (1982) In lazuur een gekroonde en omstraalde Onze-Lieve-Vrouw met op de linkerarm het Kind Jezus en in de rechterhand een scepter, alles van goud.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on October 13, 1819 and again on February 2, 1982.

The arms are based on the seal of the village from 1780, which shows St. Mary, the local patron saint, with Jesus.

The colours are the Dutch national colours, as in 1813 the mayor applied without indicating the colours. The arms were thus granted in the national colours. When the arms were confirmed in 1982 the colours were not changed.
