Krava�e is a town in Ostravsk� kraj, Okres Opava, population 6.650,
on the road Opava - Ostrava. The CoA: Or an "Od�ivous"/Zavinut� st�ela
- see Humpolec CoA - Sable") and the Flag
(Banner of arms, ratio 2:3, the emblem as big as 2/3 of the width). Before
1996 the Coat of Arms was Gules, Od�ivous Argent - exactly like
the Arms of medieval lords "z Krava�" (of Krava�e). To differ its emblem
from the others Krava�e changed its colors (perhaps) for Silesian ones.
Krava�e, once vilage, since 1960 a Town, was between 1742-1920 and
again between 1938-45 as a part of Hlu��nsko in Prussia, resp. in Germany.
Local Baroque Chateau build by Baron von Eichendorff was damaged during
Red Army "Operation Ostrava " in WWII.
