Origin/meaning

The arms were granted on November 16, 1842.

The arms are based on the arms used by the Lords of Varsenare as shown in a roll of arms from 1557. Also in the 17^th century these arms were mentioned as those of the Lords and Estate of Varsenare, and thus were adopted by the village in 1842.
