Overview

Koprivnicki Ivanec is a community just two kilometers due north of Koprivnica with some 2600 inhabitants. The CoA and the flag are described in the statutes of 2001 issued in the official gazette (avilable on <www.glasila.hr>):  Statut Opcine Koprivnicki Ivanec, 10. listopada 2001. Službeni glasnik Koprivnicko-križevacke županije, br. 12/01, god. IX, Koprivnica, 11. listopada 2001. They must have been adopted somewhat earlier, say about 1997.
The coat of arms of Koprivnicki Ivanec is Argent five Flames Gules. The flag is blue with the coat of arms bordered yellow in the middle. The five flames are said to represent five villages comprising the Community, and symbol of the Midsumernight's bonfires (Midsummerday being celebrated with bonfires as the day of St. John, i.e. Ivan).
