![[Hat municipality flag]](../images/c/cz-op-ht.gif)
by Blas Delgado Ortiz, 24 Aug 2001, after image by Petr Exner;
flag adopted 13 Jun 1995
This one is canting, since "Hat" and "had" ("snake") are pronounced
identically in Czech.
Lewis A. Nowitz, 24 Aug 2001
Mr. L.A. Nowitz was right about Hať flag (district Opava), although
I thought he´s wrong! "Hať" and "Had" are pronounced a little different,
but the oldest name of the community was "HAT" without diacrtical sign
and the snake was in the seal. The net or bars is also reference to the
name. "Hať" is a causeway of timber or fascine through swamps, also
known as corduroy road.
