Origin/meaning

The arms are derived from the arms of the Diocese of Litoměřice. The moon and star are taken from the arms of the city of Louny (Louny - luna). They also reference the Virgin Mary, who is the patron of the Deacon's Church in Žatec and has many pilgrimage sites dedicated to her in the area.
