Dalfsen CoA

by Jarig Bakker, 2 Jun 2004, after image from the Dalfsen municipal website.

In its meeting on 24 Jun 2002 the municipal council decided to adopt the new CoA, and has asked HM the Queen to grant it. On 13 Sep 2002 the new CoA was officially granted. The arms consist of the complete old Dalfsen CoA on top (see the flag), and the lower half of the old Nieuwleusen arms (two crossed scythes). It was decided too to retain the two old CoAs as village-arms without status.

Hoonhorst villageflag

by Jarig Bakker, 5 Jul 2005

Stefan Lambrechts spotted on the website of the municipality of Dalfsen in Overijssel province a flag for the "woonkern" (settlement) of Hoonhorst: blue with along the hoist a white capital H and in flagcenter white letters "oonhorst". I thought that it was possibly a commercial flag and wrote to the municipality for confirmation
