Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on July 24, 2001.

The column refers to both the Jašiūnai palace of late classicism style and the letter "I", which in old Latin alphabet meant also "J", the initial letter of the town name. The two stars symbolize the closely related families Balinski and Sniadecki, who lived in Jasiunai or visited it: through all of them Jasiunai was an important regional centre of culture in early 19th century.
