There has been much dispute about the colours of the lions. In 1816 the arms were granted with the red lion in the first quarter. This was either a mistake by the painter at the [http://www.hogeraadvanadel.nl Hoge Raad van Adel] (registry office), or by the town council. Unfortunately the original drawing put forward by the town council is lost. There are some historical pictures showing the red lion in the first quarter (all from the 17<sup>th</sup> century), but there are more and older pictures with the black lion in the first quarter. Also, the original Holland-Henegouwen arms show the black lion in the first quarter (see f.e. [[Rotterdam]]). The town decided in 1932 to change the colours to the original colours. | There has been much dispute about the colours of the lions.
