Pakraci is a city of about 16,500 inhabitants, half of them
living in the settlement of the same name and others in the
surrounding villages under the same administration. It is some 40
km west of Požega on what is the traditional westernmost
border of Slavonia. In 1992/93 reform Pakrac was given status of
a community, but was upgraded to city status in 1997.
The coat of arms of Pakrac is one of the latest granted
arms in the region in 1932 (latter the coats of arms were adopted
locally): azure between two bars wavy argent a marten passant
proper (maroon bellied argent). The coat of arms is obviously
based on the historical coat of arms of Slavonia.
The flag is adopted in 1990's (1996), blue with the yellow
bordered coat of arms in the middle.
