On the blue field in the left upper part of the shield there is a yellow (golden) star with ten wavy arms. On a white (silver) field in the upper right part of the shield, a horseman in the armor of a medieval Knight stabbing a dragon under the horse's feet is drawn. WHITE (SILVER) - PURITY BLUE - ETERNITY YELLOW (GOLD) - HEAVENLY BEGINNING RED - FIRENESS The star in the blue field has ten arms as an association, in ten places in the municipality of Sveti Juraj na Breg. The arms are wavy in order to evoke the hilly side of the upper Međimurje. A knight on a horse stabbing a dragon under the horse's hooves vividly depicts the fight of Saint George with the dragon.
