Arms of Ghissignies
The arms of Ghissignies are blazoned :

Azure, semy de lys Or dimidiated with Vert, a fess argent. (Ghissignies and Haspres use the same arms.)

gollark: Except 1487. That was real.
gollark: They would have needed telephones to do telekinesis.
gollark: That's ridiculous. They faked gravity before telephones were a thing.
gollark: No, because I think I have a tin foil hat (with bee repellent) on, so I don't think I'm mind controlled.
gollark: You can't be mind controlled, but you can think you're mind controlled, which is kind of sort of the same thing.
