Origin/meaning

The composition of the three fleur-de-lis first appears on the oldest seal of the town, dating from the mid 15th century. The origin of the composition is not known. It has been postulated that the arms are derived from the symbols used by the Lords of Massing in the 12th century. Their symbols (they probably did not yet use arms), however, are not known. In 1565 the arms were replaced by a new composition, with a hand coming from a cloud and holding a fleur-de-lis. These arms were used until the 19th century, when the historical arms were restored.
