Ostrov municipality flag

Ostrov is in Karlovy Vary district, in the east of the Czech Republic. Aleš Křižan's description:
White over blue. From the flagpole a blue pile (klin, Keil) reaches to 4/9 of the field. The pile and lower field (of the same color) is divided by the white line (1/15 of the flag length). Ratio 2:3

Ostrov Coat of Arms

The original Coat of Arms was the full one of the Kingdom with two squirrels as supporters. The emperor Rudolph II granted the improved Arms (1604) - the Chateau (zámek, Schloss) with seven towers (5 visible). The Royal Crest should be: an eagle's wing sable seamed with hearts (or Linden leaves inverted) Or.
