Origin/meaning

The arms were officially adopted on June 4, 2021.

In the first half appears the cross from the arms of the De Monchaux family, lords of the village from 1380 to 1440. In the second part, the three crosses are taken from the Gaillard d ' Embreville arms, lords in the 17th and 18th centuries. Aabove all, the wolf's head evokes the name of the hamlet of Hucqueleux, "howl wolf" .
