Presentation of Požega

Požega is a town near Užice in central western Serbia. When there is possibility of confusing it with some other city of the same name (like [Slavonska] Požega in Croatia) the name is given as Užička Požega, though I do not think that it was ever official.

The symbols of Požega were recently adopted, as confirmed by Dragomir Acović.

The flag of Požega is quartered blue and red with a white cross overall and over its center a white fimbriated blue disc with a yellow cross throughout.
