About the place: Liběšice is a municipality and village in Louny District in the Ústí nad Labem Region of the Czech Republic. It is situated in a fertile hop-growing region near the Ohře River.

Flag Description: The flag consists of a blue field with a yellow canton in the upper hoist corner (top left from the observer's point of view). The height and width of the canton equal half the width of the flag. Inside the canton are two crossed black ragged staves (ostreve).

Symbolism: The crossed black ragged staves in the yellow canton are derived from the coat of arms of the noble Ronovci family, who historically owned the local estate. The blue field symbolizes local watercourses and the surrounding landscape.
