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. Due to severe fires, no seals or documents of that period are left. The oldest known use of the eagle dates from a map dating from 1610, where the arms are shown as above. All later seals and images show the same arms. | The arms show the imperial eagle of the Holy Roman Empire.
