The arms of Brassó county are the same as the town of [[Brașov]]. It was a free Saxon district that became independent from Fejér county in 1288. The Hungarian name of the district is Barcaság, the German is Burzenland. The arms tells the legend of the German and Latin name (Kronstadt-Corona) of the town.

The place of the event was shown next to Brașov and was named Salamon-kõ (Salomon Rocks). The legend is certainly false but it comes from the 14<sup>th</sup> century as do the arms.
