Summary
About the place: Hříšice is a municipality and village in Jindřichův Hradec District in the South Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic, situated in the historical region of southwestern Moravia. It lies in an undulating agricultural and forested landscape roughly 5 kilometres northeast of Dačice.
Flag Description: The flag consists of two vertical stripes, white and blue. In the center, a bow saw above a wheeled plough, both counterchanged red in the white field and white in the blue field. The ratio of the flag's width to length is 2:3.
Symbolism: The symbols on the flag are derived directly from the municipal coat of arms: the wheeled plough represents the long-standing agricultural heritage and farming of the municipality, while the bow saw alludes to the extensive forests and forestry traditions. The white and blue colors, combined with the red-and-white counterchanging of the charges, symbolize local ponds, landscape elements, and regional heritage.
