Flag Description: A white flag charged with a central green cross pattée whose arms expand to three-fifths of the flag's width at the edges. In the center of the cross is a yellow bunch of grapes ensigned by a yellow and red princely coronet. The aspect ratio is 2:3.

Symbolism: The green cross pattée on a white field signifies Christian tradition and the historical possession of the village by the Cistercian Velehrad Abbey (recorded in 1228). The grape cluster represents the region's rich viticultural heritage, and the princely coronet commemorates the historical feudal ties to the House of Liechtenstein (manor of Bzenec).
