In Maastricht there is a series of gable stones with depictions of cities. They usually referred to the place of origin of persons who had settled in Maastricht. That is probably also the case here. The reverse also happened. For instance, in the building at Herengracht 243 there is a gable stone with the inscription INDE WYCK TOT MAESTRIGT".
Rumund is the local pronunciation of Roermond.
The stone IN THE CITY OF ROERMOND is from Ruiterstraat 7.
