Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on June 21, 1913.
The crosses in the arms are derived form the arms of the 13th century Lords of Breda, from the Schooten family (see also Breda). Brasschaat historically belonged to Ekeren, which was a possession of the Lords of Breda until the 16th century. In the 16th century they were succeeded by the Princes of Salm-Salm, who used two salmon in their arms. The salmon in the lower half of the arms is derived from their arms. In turn the princes were succeeded by the Lalaing family. The two diamonds are derived from the arms of this family.
The supporter is St. Anthony, patron saint of the village.
