Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on August 4, 1818 and slightly changed on February 28, 1931.
The arms show a sunflower and a rooster as symbols for the agriculture, the main means of income in the 19th century. The colours are the Dutch national colours, as in 1818 Belgium was part of the Netherlands. If no historical colours were known, the national colours (blue and gold) were used. In 1931 the arms were re-designed and slightly changed.
