Flag Description: Dolní Branná is a municipality in the Trutnov District of the Hradec Králové Region, situated along the Sovinka stream just south of Vrchlabí in the Krkonoše foothills. The village features a traditional linear valley settlement pattern with historical roots in agriculture and textile production.
Symbolism: The color scheme of blue and yellow (gold) derives from the livery of the noble House of Waldstein (Wallenstein), long-standing historical owners of the estate who founded the local Church of St. George. The central white stripe (corresponding to the silver fess in the municipal coat of arms) symbolizes the Sovinka stream traversing the village. The two yellow stripes correspond to the three golden wheatsheaves in the coat of arms, signifying both the agricultural heritage of the region and the three historic manorial farmsteads (poplužní dvory) from which the settlement originated.
