The municipality of Humanes de Madrid (19,404 inhabitants in 2014; 1,946 ha; municipal website) is located in the south of the Community of Madrid, 5 km of Fuenlabrada and 25 km of Madrid.

Humanes was first documented in 1141, when King Alfonso VII transferred the town to Pedro Brimonis. His successor, Pelayo Pérez, granted a charter to Humanes in 1173; three years later, he transferred the town to the Order of St. John of Jerusalem. The Order, however, never directly ruled the town, which was granted in 1183 to Fernando Núñez de Lara.
John II offered Humanes in 1145 to Pedro López de Ayala "El Tuerto". The Ayala, subsequently made Counts of Fuensalida, progressively abandoned their rights to the inhabitants of the town.
Humanes was transferred in 1833 from the Province of Toledo to the Province of Madrid.

The flag is described as follows:

Flag: In proportions 2:3. Blue panel charged in the center with the municipal coat of arms.

The Royal Academy of History validated the "cautious proposal", recommending to keep "the adequate proportions usually observed for that kind of symbol".
[Boletín de la Real Academia de la Historia, 1991, 188, 1: 196]

The coat of arms of Humanes de Madrid is prescribed by Royal Decree No. 3,133, adopted on 14 November 1975 and published on 29 November 1975 in the Spanish official gazette, No. 287, p. 24,947 (text).
The coat of arms is described as follows:

Coat of arms: Gules a column argent in base waves argent and azure. The shield surmounted by a Royal crown closed.

The Royal Academy of History validated the proposed arms "without any objection". The column recalls the local devotion to the Christ of the Column, while the waves recall the significance of irrigated crops.
[Boletín de la Real Academia de la Historia, 1977, 184, 3: 654]
