Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on March 22, 1920 and with supporters on April 4, 1995.
The arms are those of the last Lords of Borsbeek in the late 18th century, the (Spanish) De Villegas family, who originated from Burgos, but were influential in Belgium since the 17th century.
The arms from 1995 were based on the official grant of arms of Diego Ferdinand de Villegas, alderman of Antwerpen in 1672, and had the supporters added.
