Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on October 6, 1819 and confirmed on December 31, 1838 and December 2, 1985.
The arms show the local patron saint, St. Peter, holding a key. The saint also appeared on the local seal, known from 1638-1770.
The colours are the Dutch national colours, as in 1813 the mayor applied without indicating the colours. The arms were thus granted in the national colours. When the arms were confirmed after the Belgian independence, the colours were not changed.
