KORTESSEM
Province : Limburg
Additions : 1977 Guigovem, Vliermaal, Vliermaalroot, Wintershoven
Official blazon
Gedeeld 1. gedwarsbalkt van tien stukken van goud en van keel 2. doorsneden a. in lazuur een rechtshellende schaliehamer van zilver b. in keel drie palen van vair en een schildhoofd van goud. Het schild getopt met een kroon met vijf fleurons van goud
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on November 17, 1987.
The arms were newly designed, as of the five former municipality only Vliermaal used arms. The right half shows the arms of Vliermaal and also represents Vliermaalroot, which was part of Vliermaal until 1865. The hammer in the upper left quarter is taken from the arms of the Blanckaert family, last Lords of Guigovem. The lower left quarter shows the arms of the family d'Isendoorn a Blois, last Lords of both Kortessem and Wintershoven.
