Breznički Hum is a community in the souther end of the
Varaždin County, on the main road leading from Zagreb to
Varaždin (or if you preffer on the road Rijeka-
Zagreb-Budapest-Minsk). The population is about 1,700. In the
1992 regulation the name of the community is given as Hum
Breznički, but in 1997 it was reversed. The ceremonial
flag is shown on the web site of a flag manufacturer Valentino
from Beletinec (not far from Hum) at <www.zastave.com> from which
the Coat of Arms and the "normal" flag may be concluded
with reasonable certainity. The Coat of
Arms of Breznički Hum is azure a water pump argent and a
post horn or in chief. I think that the posthorn may refer
to the importance of the place for trafic. The flag is
blue with the golden bordered coat of arms in the middle. The Ceremonial Flag is a blue gonflaon with three
trinagularly ending tails and with golden fring along bottom, the
coat of arms in the middle, the name of the community above in
two arches and linden branches ornament below in the tails.

The statutes of Breznicki Hum adopted recently include the
full description of the flag and the Coat of Arms where before
only statement about their possible adoption was in 2001
statutes: Statut Opcine Breznicki Hum, 7.02.2006, Službeni
vjesnik Varaždinske županije, br. 3/2006, 08.02.2006.
Željko Heimer, 30 July 2006
The symbols were adopted on 20 December 2001 with the
decision: Odluka o opisu i uporabi grba i zastave Opcine
Breznicki Hum, 20.12.2001, Službeni vjesnik Varaždinske
županije, br. 29/2001, 21.12.2001. available on <www.glasila.hr>.
The decision describes only the Coat of Arms and the flag, not
the ceremonial flag (which is not unusual for Croatian local
symbols legislation).

The new 2009 Statutes repeats word for word Article 5 from the
previous 2006 Statutes describing the Coat of Arms and the flag:
Statut Opcine Breznicki Hum, 10.07.2009, Službeni vjesnik
Varaždinske županije, br. 27/2009, 11.08.2009.
