Symbolism: The flag derives its tinctures from the municipal coat of arms granted in 2015, which commemorates the merger of two historic villages (Velký Dešov and Malý Dešov). The red and yellow correspond to the golden field with a red rose representing Velký Dešov, while the blue and white refer to the field featuring a silver heron and chevronel representing Malý Dešov and its wetlands.
