Origin/meaning :
The arms were officially granted on June 3, 1993.

The chief shows a flint axe, which was found in the municipality. It refers to the long inhabitation of the area.

The shield is divided into two parts, resembling the historical situation in which the village was divided since 1353 between the Reinfeld monastery and the local lords.
The wheatear and the axe refer to the agricultural character of the municipality as well as the local woodwork tradition.

The wavy bar represents the Beek river.
