Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on June 30, 1853 and again at April 3, 1981.
The arms are those of the last Lords of Willebroek in the 18th century, the Helman family.
Historically the village used a seal from the 15th until the 17th century with the arms of Grimbergen, the first Lords of Willebroek until the 14th century.
