Summary

About the place: Dušníky is a municipality and village in Litoměřice District, Ústí nad Labem Region, Czech Republic, situated in the low-lying agricultural landscape of the Lower Ohře region roughly 5 km south of Roudnice nad Labem.

Flag Description: A green field featuring two arched outward-curving ears of grain, each with a single leaf, and between them a crosier with the crook turned towards the hoist, all yellow. The aspect ratio is 2:3.

Symbolism: The golden crosier represents the village's ecclesiastical heritage, the etymology of its name (derived from medieval church-bound serfs and endowment estates), and its historical ties to the Premonstratensian monastery in Doksany since the 12th century. The two golden ears of grain on a green field symbolize the agricultural character of the village and the fertility of the local landscape.
