The arms are derived from the arms of the Van Hofstade family, an important local family in the 12-15<sup>th</sup> century. Willem van Hofstade, for example, was mayor of Mechelen in the early 15<sup>th</sup> century. The arms are derived from his arms, which showed a similar shield. As a crest he used two sirens. In the arms of the council the sirens were changed into supporters and the whole was placed on a sea, symbolising the local lake.
