Banner of arms of Isère

Banner of arms of Isère - Image by Olivier Touzeau, 25 March 2019

The flags representing the departments of the former Region Rhône-Alpes were hoisted, together with the Region's flag, in front of the seat of the former Regional Council at Charbonnières-les-Bains, near Lyon (photo, 12 February 2006).
The department of Isère was represented by a yellow flag with a vertical blue band at the fly, and in the canton a yellow tower edged with black, surmounted by a blue crown, superimposed by a dolphin also blue. The dolphin comes from the coat of arms of the traditional province of Dauphiné.
