Flag of Vrbovec

The symbols of Vrbovec are prescribed by Decision Odluka o grbu i zastavi grada Vrbovca, adopted on 23 September 1996 by the Town Assembly and published on 24 September 1996 in the Zagreb County official gazette Glasnik Zagrebačke Županije, No. 16.

The symbols are based on a proposal submitted by Tomislav Goluban, from Zagreb in the public contest held in November 1995.

The flag is described in Article 8 of the Decision, as follows:

The flag of the Town of Vrbovec is rectangular in shape with the ratio of length of the sides one to two and with the spear along the shorter side. On a white (silver) background in the centre of the flag is the coat of arms of the Town of Vrbovec at 1/9 of the distance from the top and the bottom edge of the flag.

Coat of arms of Vrbovec

The coat of arms is described in Article 6 of the Decision, as follows:

The coat of arms of the Town of Vrbovec contains elements from the historical coat of arms of two important Croatian families, Zrinski and Patačić, linked with the town of Varaždin. In a semicircular, blue shield on a green mount in the lower third in the centre of the shield stands a golden yellow tower with a red triangular roof. Along the centre of the tower vertically are two windows and beneath them doors. The windows are black, as well as the doors, but they are outlined with yellow contours. To the left and to the right of the tower in the blue background is on each side a black eagle's wing.

The arms of the two families indeed include black wings, while the tower is a further modification of the tower found in the Zrinski arms.
