Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on 24 September 1456. The arms were confirmed, and second crest and supporters granted 29 January 1603, both crests confirmed 9 September 1961.
The original motto was 'Delite in God & he shall give the thy desyre'. In 1603 it was 'Quae arguuntur a lumine manifestantur'.
If this text appears, it means that background information is available, but that I have not yet had the time to add the information on these arms. Just [|mail me with the name of the town in the subject !] and I will add all information that I have !
