Coat of arms of the Bryansk region

The coat of arms of the Bryansk region is a blue French shield . Blue - the color of the shield - the color of Slavic unity adopted in heraldry, symbolizes the region's membership in Slavism.

In the lower part of the shield, three golden rays diverge from one point, dividing the shield into three parts, each of which is a symbol of the unity of the Slavic states: Russia , Belarus and Ukraine . The same element carries a second semantic load - the historical geopolitical position of the Bryansk region on the convergence of the borders of the three Slavic states.

At the top of the shield is a stylized image of a golden spruce with a three-tier crown as a well-recognized symbol of the Bryansk Forest. Against the background of the central part, the emblem of the city of Bryansk is depicted, which carries a multifaceted symbolic load. Bryansk is the capital city of the region.

The symbolism of the historical coat of arms of Bryansk reflects the characteristic features of the region and its inhabitants: industrial power and patriotism .

The emblem is bordered with an oak wreath , defining the status of the region as a subject of the Russian Federation , endowed with the rights of state power. The wreath is intertwined with sash ribbons: the right side ^[1] is interlaced with the ribbon of the Order of Lenin , which Bryansk was awarded in 1967 , the left side is interlaced with the medal “Partisan of the Great Patriotic War” ^[2] .

In the gap of an oak wreath above the center of the coat of arms, a sickle and hammer are depicted, symbolizing not only the indestructible union of workers and peasants, but also the fact that the Bryansk region is a new territorial formation created during the Soviet regime.
