The coat of arms of Nerežišća is azure, a church with a bell tower on a
distaff and an apse from which a pine tree grows to the left. The flag is blue
with the coat of arms bordered on white in the middle. The ceremonial flag is a
blue gonfalon with two ogival tails with tassels or, with the coat of arms in
the middle, the name of the municipality in an arch and a line above, crossed
olive and vine branches, and in the right tail a white lamb and in the left a
crossed chisel and hammer.
The coat of arms of the Municipality of Nerežišća
depicts a silver church with an apse and a bell tower on a distaff, from which a
pine tree grows to the left, all on a blue background. This motif symbolizes the
famous church of St. Peter in Nerežišće, from whose roof a pine tree (the
so-called church bonsai) sprouted. The age of the tree is estimated at 150 to
200 years, and its height is about 170 cm.
