The history of the municipality is very complicated, with many families owning small plots. In the 12<sup>th</sup> century the largest part of the village was owned by the Lords of [[Grimbergen]]. Even though in later centuries only parts belonged to Grimbergen, the seal of the village council showed the Grimbergen arms from 1423-1775. The arms are based on the seal and also show the Grimbergen arms. The supporter in the old arms is St. Martin, the local patron saint. | The history of the municipality is very complicated, with many families owning small plots.
