by Blas Delgado Ortiz, 12 Apr 2001, after image by Petr Exner.
Kopřivnice (Ostrava region, some 30 km south-west from Ostrava): horizontal
white-red, in left top corner is red shield with white leaf of nettle (nettle = kopřiva
in Czech). Flag is similar as flag of Reuss
1919 (in Germany-Saxonia), only with other shield. This shield is on coat-of-arms
of Kopřivnice too (www.koprivnice.cz)
(only part of coat of arms!). Flag adopted 15 Jul 1993.

from the Koprivnice website.
The main element is the "President" car, the first one built on Austrian
territory - escutcheon with nettle-leaf (realistic, non-heraldic) - a canting
element: kopřiva (German: Nessel) means "nettle".
