Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on October 20, 1932.

The arms are identical to the arms of the Van Varick family (see also Varik in the Netherlands), who were Lords of Buizingen for more than two centuries. The local council used in the early 18^th century a seal with the arms of the family. The council applied in 1931 to be allowed to use those arms as arms for the village.
