Flag Description: A green field with a centered white cross, the arms of which are three-elevenths of the flag's width. The vertical arm features a green grapevine with four bunches of grapes coiled around a black stake, flanked in the horizontal arm by two red fleurs-de-lis. The ratio of the flag's width to length is 2:3.
Symbolism: The green field and the grapevine with grapes symbolize the municipality's agriculture and long-standing viticultural heritage. The white cross commemorates the local Chapel of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross and historical ties to monastic ownership (the Cistercian convent). The red fleurs-de-lis, traditional Marian and conventual heraldic emblems, reinforce this historical monastic connection.
