Velika Gorica gained the status of a city in the new
territorial division of the Republic of Croatia in 1995. The coat
of arms and the flag of Velika Gorica are adopted on
(22-JUL-1997)? Sabre, oxen rampant Argent holding in forelegs
a house of the second roofed Gules. In chief, sinister a crescent
of the second, dexter three mullets Or one above two. The
extinct kind of oxen Tur (Bos primigenius) gave
name to Turopolje - a wide plain which the city covers
today. The building in its forelegs is the townhall of Turopolje
(today a museum), of the medieval Noble communuity of Turopolje.
The crescent and stars are taken from the coat of arms of the
Community. The red colour of the flag is chosen as the
traditional colour of the Turopolje noblemen.
