Origin/meaning
The arms were officially adopted on February 12, 2021.
The gold and the red underline that the village is located in Lorraine and the blue recalls that it was initially attached to the Duchy of Bar.
The blue chevron is taken from the arms of Baron Jean de Maret de la Loge, last local lord of the village in the 18th century.
The inverted label with four embattlements refers to the former fortified castles in the municipality.
The red triquetra (or knot of the trinity) refers to Saint Hilaire of Poitiers , to whom the church of Brouennes is dedicated.
The two thimbles represent the embroidery activity which employed up to sixty people at the beginning of the 20th century.
The arms are surrounded by twigs of ash trees and other trees in forests and on the banks of surrounding rivers and streams. The decoration is the 1914-1918 War Cross.
