Presentation of Puebla de Guzmán

The municipality of Puebla de Guzmán (3,143 inhabitants in 2015; 33,700 ha; municipal website) is located 60 km north-west of Huelva, on the border with Portugal.

Puebla de Guzmán is the birth town of the painter Sebastián García Vázquez (1904-1989), who exclusively portrayed the town, its environment and its inhabitants. In 1934, he was awarded the medal of the Madrid National Exhibition. Appointed in 1943 Professor at the School of Arts of Seville, García Vázquez exhibited his works in Huelva, Seville, Córdoba, and Madrid. They are now presented in the Casa Grande of Puebla de Guzmán and in different museums in Huelva, Madrid and Seville. The painter published in 1961 El pino de la calle Larga, a book recalling his youth in Puebla and describing the local customs.

Symbols of Puebla de Guzmán

The flag of Puebla de Guzmán (photo, photo, photo), adopted on 31 May 2000 by the Municipal Council and validated on 24 January 2002 by the Royal Academy of Córdoba, is prescribed by Decree No. 108, adopted on 19 March 2002 by the Government of Andalusia and published on 23 April 2002 in the official gazette of Andalusia, No. 47, p. 6,458 (text). This was confirmed by a Resolution adopted on 30 November 2004 by the Government of Andalusia and published on 20 December 2004 in the official gazette of Andalusia, No. 246, pp. 28,986-29,002 (text).
The flag is described as follows:

Flag: Rectangular, in proportions 11 x 18, made of a red panel with six horizontal stripes in the lower part, three white and three green. Charged in the center with the coat of arms.

The Preamble of the Decree states that the flag was designed from scratch, using the main colours of the coat of arms.

The coat arms of of Puebla de Guzmán is prescribed by Decree No. 446, adopted on 7 February 1974 by the Spanish Government and published on 20 February 1971 in the Spanish official gazette, No. 44, p. 3,468 (text). This was confirmed by a Resolution adopted on 30 November 2004 by the Government of Andalusia and published on 20 December 2004 in the official gazette of Andalusia, No. 246, pp. 28,986-29,002 (text).
The coat of arms is described as follows:

Coat of arms: Per pale, 1. Vert a castle or ensigned by an arm argent issuant holding a sword of the same, 2. Azure two caldrons in pale chequy or and azure handled by seven snakes vert a bordure compony of seven pieces in turn Gules a castle or and Argent a lion purpure. The shield surmounted by a Royal crown closed.

The Royal Academy of History validated the coat of arms. The experimented heraldist [Vicente de Cadenas y Vicent] who redacted the supporting memoir did not find any evidence of a proper coat of arms historically used by the municipality. However, the coat of arms, of "immemorial use", is applied on the facade of the Town Hall.
The castle, undoubtedly, evokes the old castle of La Puebla, whose foundations were used to erect the parish church. The second quarter of the arms is made of the arms of the Guzmán, the town's namesake.
