Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on December 10, 1908.
The arms show the combined arms of the Renty-Croy family (see also Ghlin, Celles, Gottignies, Mignault and others). The estate of Havré became a possession of Philippe de Croy in 1518. The estate remained a possession of the Croy family until the end of the 18th century.
The oldest seal of the council of Havré dates from the end of the 16th century and already shows the arms of the family. The above arms were based on this seal.
