This city of 12,658 inhabitants was founded in 1771 or 1772.
The flag of our town was approved by the Municipal Assembly on
September 28, 1973. The central white stripe stands for the urban
zone. The nine surrounding stars [there are 11 on the image of
the Lexjuris
site!!!] represent the nine [rural] boroughs of the
municipality. The red and orange colors symbolize the vigour and
vitality of the town. The yellow represents Christianity. The
green is vegetation and hope for progress of the municipality.
Finally, the white represents purity and unity between the
boroughs and the urban zone.
