Summary

About the place: Hlubočany is a South Moravian municipality located in the Vyškov District at the foot of the Litenčice Hills, roughly 5 km south of Vyškov. It possesses a predominantly rural and agricultural character and includes the hamlet of Terešov.

Flag Description: The flag consists of three horizontal stripes of green, white, and green, with a yellow hoist-based triangle (wedge) extending to one-third of the flag's length. The width-to-length ratio is 2:3.

Symbolism: The green color represents the rural landscape, nature, and fertile agriculture of the region. The yellow wedge and white stripe derive from the municipality's coat of arms (a golden pile accompanied by silver ploughing tools—a coulter and a ploughshare—symbolizing historical farming heritage and traditional village seals).
