Arms (crest) of Bräkne härad

Official blazon

I fält av guld en från mark uppväxande bräken, allt grönt.

Origin/meaning

The arms are canting. The normal word for "fern" in Swedish is "ormbunke", but there is also a word "bräken", cognate to English - particularly Scottish - "bracken", with the same meaning. It is the normal word for "fern" in some dialects.
