Province : Oost-Vlaanderen
Incorporated into : 1964 Oudenaarde
Official blazon
- (1818) Van lazuur, beladen met het beeld van St Maarten van goud.
- (1928) Een schild van sabel met een faas van zilver en met een halve paal van hetzelfde zich vereenigend met de faas, vergezeld van drie sterren met zes stralen van goud, twee in het schildhoofd, en een in den schildvoet (hetgeen is de la Kéthulle), geplaatst voor eenen heiligen Martinus van goud.
Origin/meaning
The first arms were granted on February 24, 1818 and changed on September 7, 1928.
The new arms are derived from the arms of the Kéthulle family, Lords of Volkegem from the early 16th century until 1693.
The old arms from 1818 showed a blue shield with in gold the composition of St. Martin, cutting his cloak for a beggar. St. Martin is the local patron saint.
