Summary
About the place: Brno-Ořešín is the northernmost and, by population, smallest city district of Brno. Situated on the forested edge of the Drahany Highlands, it retains a distinct rural character and serves as a gateway to recreational hiking and nature trails.
Flag Description: The flag consists of two horizontal stripes, white and blue, in a 1:2 width ratio. In the blue stripe, there is a white plowshare with the cutting edge pointing towards the hoist and the tip pointing upwards, accompanied by a white vine knife with the cutting edge pointing towards the hoist. The ratio of the flag's width to length is 2:3.
Symbolism: The flag is derived from the municipal coat of arms and the historical village seal. The white plowshare and vine knife represent the village's agricultural heritage and historical viticulture. The blue and white colors correspond to the heraldic tinctures of the coat of arms and reference historical ties to monastic estates (Old Brno Cistercian and Zábrdovice Premonstratensian monasteries).
