Coat of arms of Despotovac

by Dragomir Acović

The supporters of the coat of arms of Despotovac are prominent figures of the Serbian history, probably connected with the circular badge in the flag, that is the badge of some medieval Serbian rulers. Some of these rulers held the title of Despot, and the place name is surely connected to some Despot itself.
The flag of Despotovac shown in the coat of arms has the red disk fimbriated yellow instead of white.
