On the web site of the several local official gazettes at <www.glasila.hr>
is also the official gazette of the Varaždin County that
includes the Decision on the description and on the use of the
coat of arms and the flag of the Community of Visoko: Odluka o
opisu i uporabi grba i zastave Opc'ine Visoko, 18. svibnja 2004,
Službeni vjesnik Varaždinske županije, br. 15A/04,
22. svibnja 2004. Unfortunately, the gazette does not include
images, but only descriptions.
The coat of arms of Visoko is or a blackbird holding in the beak
two plumbs all proper standing on a mount vert. The plumbs refer
to the local petty nobility granted to the local inhabitants
since 12th century, nicknamed plumb-growers (ljivari).
The flag is blue with the coat of arms in the middle. Probably
there is also a ceremonial flag, but it is not mentioned.

Recently opened web site of the community show the Coat of
Arms at <www.visoko.hr>.
There is a much larger community (city) named Visoko in Bosnia
and Herzegovina with some 40,000 inhabitants in the Zenica-Doboj Canton , not to be confuzed
with this one.

The 2006 Statutes adopted by the community include the
description of the Coat of Arms and the flag, matching the
previous decision of 2004. However, the flag is in the Statutes
described to have the ration of 1:3. This is, I believe, nothing
more then a typo where should stand 1:2, but nevertheless - I may
be wrong - and we should note this.
