Overview

On the arms there are the tower and the two churches of Blato. On the entrance of the tower there are crossed an olive branch and a vine leaf, traditional products of the region. Under the croatian triple wattle ornament, there are two crossed sabres and the cap with tricolour of Blato company. The flag (probably ceremonial) is red bordered with golden triple wattle ornament and with the coat of arms in the middle. Adopted: around 1996 (?). Design: Željko Drakulić.
