Summary
About the place: Dolní Lomná is a picturesque submontane village situated in the Frýdek-Místek District of the Moravian-Silesian Region, nestled in the valley of the Lomná River in the Moravian-Silesian Beskids near the borders with Poland and Slovakia. It is renowned as a traditional center of Goral culture and a popular starting point for mountain hiking.
Flag Description: The flag consists of a blue hoist stripe covering one-third of the flag's length and a white fly area. Emerging from the partition in the hoist area is a half yellow eagle with red armament, adjoined to half of a green deciduous tree with a brown trunk in the fly. Both figures issue from a blue wavy bar (with two crests and one trough) that spans one-eighth of the flag's width and is positioned one-sixteenth of the width above the bottom edge. The ratio of hoist to fly is 2:3.
Symbolism: The half golden eagle in the blue field denotes the municipality's historical affiliation with the Duchy of Cieszyn (Teschen) and the region of Silesia. The deciduous tree on the white field represents the surrounding dense forests and scenic nature of the Beskids, while the blue wavy stripe at the base symbolizes the Lomná River, from which the village derives its name.
