Summary
About the place: Brno-Řečkovice a Mokrá Hora is a municipal district on the northern edge of the statutory city of Brno, comprising the cadastral communities of Řečkovice and Mokrá Hora. It is predominantly a residential area combining preserved historic village cores with modern housing developments and surrounding forested hills.
Flag Description: The flag consists of two horizontal stripes of yellow and red, with a blue chevron issuing from the middle third of the upper and lower edges, pointing toward the hoist with its vertex at the center of the hoist edge. Inside the blue chevron is a white chevron whose width is two-fifteenths of the flag length. The aspect ratio is 2:3.
Symbolism: The primary colors (yellow, red, blue, and white) are derived from the municipal district's coat of arms and reflect Moravian and Brno civic traditions. The chevron heraldically represents protection, shelter, and home. Geometrically, it echoes the chevron partition of the district's coat of arms, where the agricultural ploughshare and vine knife celebrate the historical wine-growing and farming heritage of the region, while honoring the union of Řečkovice and Mokrá Hora.
