The Municipality of Vučitrn uses a pseudo-heraldic emblem in the shape of a shield with a landscape motif: the arched Vojinović Bridge over a river, a cogwheel, an ear of grain and a white monument before the outline of a hill, with a border in the colours of the Serbian tricolour. The Albanian authorities in the municipality, within the provisional institutions of self-government, use an altered variant of the same insignia — with a black and red border and a blue mountain, without the monument and with the cogwheel moved to the base of the shield — as well as a light blue flag with that emblem and the Latin name of the town, VICIANUM.

Blazon

Shield

A shield edged with a red, a blue and a white band, in the colours of the Serbian tricolour; against a light blue sky a tall white square monument, dark red hills and a brown cogwheel, on the right a gold ear of grain, and in the lower part the silver stone Vojinović Bridge on three arches over blue water with white wavy lines.

Variant

In the variant used by the Albanian authorities the border is black and red, the hill blue, there is no monument, the cogwheel is at the base of the shield beneath the bridge and water, and the colours are partly altered.

Flag

The flag used by the provisional institutions of self-government is light blue, with the municipality's emblem in the centre, above which the Latin name of the town, “VICIANUM”, is written.
