Flag Description: A blue sheet with a white pentagonal field whose vertices lie at the midpoint and seventh-eighths of both hoist and fly edges, and in the middle of the upper edge. On the lower edge of the white field are two green hills, each bearing a green spruce with a brown trunk, between them a red water bucket wheel on an axle with a horizontal black blade spindle. The ratio of width to length is 2 : 3.
Symbolism: The white field and blue borders represent the municipality's high mountain location, pristine nature, and local rivers. The two green hills with spruces depict the forested ridges of the Jizera Mountains, including Tanvaldský Špičák. The red waterwheel commemorates historical water-powered glassworks, mills, and the vital role of hydropower in the region's industrial past.
