Summary
About the place: Dunajovice is a South Bohemian municipality located in the Jindřichův Hradec District within the Třeboň Basin, approximately 6 km northwest of Třeboň. The area is known for its scenic pond-rich landscape overlooked by the wooded hill Dunajovická hora with a pilgrimage chapel and Way of the Cross.
Flag Description: The flag consists of six horizontal stripes: white, green convex, and four alternating white and blue, in a width ratio of 5:1:1:1:1:1. In the upper white stripe is a red rose with a yellow seed and green sepals. In the green stripe, which arches upward to the midpoint of the upper white stripe, is a fleur-de-lis flanked by two notched pattée crosses, all yellow. The ratio of width to length of the flag is 2:3.
Symbolism: The red five-petaled rose refers to the noble House of Rosenberg and the historic Třeboň estate. The green convex stripe represents the prominent local hill Dunajovická hora. The golden fleur-de-lis symbolizes the village chapel dedicated to the Annunciation of the Virgin Mary. The two golden notched pattée crosses represent the pilgrimage Chapel of the Holy Cross and the historic Way of the Cross on Dunajovická hora. The alternating white and blue stripes at the bottom represent the Dunajovický stream and the typical fishpond-rich waters of the Třeboň Basin.
