The arms show the imperial eagle of the Holy Roman Empire. Ronse was an important city since medieval times and probably received the right to use the eagle in the 14th or 15<sup>th</sup> century.

All later seals and images show the same arms. | The arms show the imperial eagle of the Holy Roman Empire.
