About the Flag

It is a fairly typical Portuguese municipal flag, with the coat of arms centred on a green and white gyronny (city rank) background.
This flag and arms are in probable use since the upgrade from (town rank) in 1997.07.12 and there were but trivial changes made to the previous flag (q.v.).
