Overview

On the web site of the several local official gazettes at <www.glasila.hr> is also the official gazette of the Varaždin County that includes the Decision on the description and on the use of the coat of arms and the flag of the Community of Visoko: Odluka o opisu i uporabi grba i zastave Opc'ine Visoko, 18. svibnja 2004, Službeni vjesnik Varaždinske županije, br. 15A/04, 22. svibnja 2004. Unfortunately, the gazette does not include images, but only descriptions.
The coat of arms of Visoko is or a blackbird holding in the beak two plumbs all proper standing on a mount vert. The plumbs refer to the local petty nobility granted to the local inhabitants since 12th century, nicknamed plumb-growers (ljivari).
The flag is blue with the coat of arms in the middle. Probably there is also a ceremonial flag, but it is not mentioned.
