Origin/meaning

The arms were officially adopted on February 17, 2024.

The table pitcher is a canting element (broc=pitcher) and the snail illustrates the nickname of the inhabitants of the inhabitants of Brocourt.

The scallops are the symbol of St. Michael, the patron saint of the local church. The shuttles recall the importance of home weaving in the 19th century in the village.

The oak branches refer to the surrounding forests.
