Borsodnádasd

About the place: Borsodnádasd is an industrial town located in northern Hungary within the Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén county. The area is known for its industrial history, particularly in metallurgy and sheet metal manufacturing, set in the hilly landscape of the Ózd district.

Flag Description: The flag consists of a white rectangular field with the complete municipal coat of arms of Borsodnádasd centered upon it. The shield is divided per chevron; the top left (viewer's left) blue section displays a golden double-barred cross (patriarchal cross), while the top right (viewer's right) blue section displays crossed golden mining hammers. The bottom golden section features a green reed plant with flowering panicles. Above the shield sits a silver helmet topped with a crown, from which two golden wings emerge flanking three ears of wheat. Red and silver mantling surrounds the shield, and below it rests a silver ribbon inscribed with the name 'BORSODNÁDASD' in black.

Symbolism: The double cross represents Hungarian national heritage and Christian tradition. The crossed mining hammers symbolize the town's rich industrial and mining history, while the reed plant is a canting element referring to the town's name ('nád' means reed in Hungarian). The ears of wheat and wings atop the helmet commemorate the agricultural origins and progress of the local community.
