Belgische Gemeentewapens - Armories communales de Belgique Belgian Civic Heraldry EINDHOUT Province : Antwerpen Incorporated into : 1976 Laakdal Origin/meaning : The arms were granted in 1819 and confirmed on February 28, 1839. The arms are based on the old seal of the village and show the local patron saint St. Lambert, and the arms of the Lords of Berthout (-Geel), Lords of Eindhout since the 13th century. The colours are the Dutch national colours. When in the early 19th century the council applied for the arms, no colours were specified. All non-coloured arms were granted in the national colours. After the independence of Belgium in 1830, the arms were confirmed, but the colours were not changed. Literature : Servais, 1955
