Nepomuk municipality flag

Image after Petr Exner's Vexilologický Lexikon prapory obcí ÈR (1996) - Nepomuk, Plzeò-jih district, Plzeò region - adopted 13 Feb 1996.
Nepomuk: the horizontal flag is diagonally white over blue (Bhutan-like) with the five yellow six-pointed stars in the canton.
Jan Zrzavy, 14 May 2001

Stars on its flag are remark of St. John Nepomuk, but not the arms. A small representation of St John was once in a medallion, which was placed over the church gate (I mean that church depicted in Arms, not a real building), but only Saint in Nepomuk Arms today is Holy Virgin with Child.

Nepomuk vertical flag

[hanging flag of Nepomuk] by Ivan Sache, 7 July 2000, after image from this site, reported by Jarig Bakker, 7 July 2000.

This municipality in Plzeò-jih okres, in southwest Czechia, has a vertically presented flag. The CoA on the same page differs completely from it. Is that John Nepomuk, the patron-saint of Bohemia, who is depicted on the CoA?
