The flag of Tábor Town (District centre): Red over black, in the centrea Bohemian Lion rampant (white, not silver), holding the yelow chalice,which is surmounted by a white ball, charged with black crosslet (eucharisticbread). It is a symbol of the free royal city (the lion) with Hussite past(colours, chalice and bread). In its "socialist" past the National Commiteeflied the slightly changed Hussite banner (black field with red bordureand the red chalice in the canton).
Note: in the socialist era ruled the idea, that the Arms are only ahistorical residue, because there was no municipal self-government. TheState theory has spoken on the State Administration (Statni sprava), andState Power ( or Authotity, Might - Statni moc) respectively. Sothe National Commitees were only a kind of state authority.
