Origin/meaning

The blue field with two fleur-de-lis is a symbol of the Virgin Mary, who has two churches dedicated to her in Uherský Brod. The gold crescent references the decanate Church of the Immaculate Conception. The black chief with a gold fleur-de-lis is taken from the arms of the Decanate of Uherský Brod. The left half of the arms is taken from the arms of the Kounic family who have for several centuries supported the parish.
