Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on March 3, 1914.

The arms are those of the last Lords of Zillebeke, the Canton family. In 1740 the family, Viscounts of Winnezeele, acquired the estate of Zillebeke. As no historical seals or arms for the village were known, the local council applied in 1913 for the arms of the last lords.
