The red cross and star are on coat of arms of Knights of the Cross with the Red Star (Ordo Militaris Crucigerorum cum Rubea Stella), founded by Agnes of Bohemia in 1238. It symbolizes the gratitude to the Order. After Věteřov parishioners build their own church in 1902, there was a lack of priests in the diocese, so they invited and asked the Order to take care of the church. In 1908 a rectory was built and the first priest of the Order came to Věteřov. | |||
