Description

Brussels-Capital Region Flag

A stylised iris on blue: the flag of the Brussels-Capital Region

This flag has a dark blue field. In the centre is a stylised iris: a grey heart outlined in white sits above two yellow petals that curve out to either side.

The iris of Brussels

English Wikipedia describes the flag as a stylised yellow, grey and white iris on a blue background. The iris was chosen to represent the city because the flower was found growing in the marshes, and the city itself was founded on marshy ground on Saint-Géry Island. The region was created in 1989 and adopted the plant as its symbol.

The first flag and the current one

A first flag with a gold iris was adopted by the Capital Region in 1991, by an ordinance of 16 May 1991; its design, chosen through a public competition, was by Jacques Richez. The bill for the current flag was approved on 9 January 2015, and the flag became official shortly afterwards.

Blue and yellow

The page notes that the blue and yellow are the colours of the European Union, where Brussels serves as the de facto capital.

Who chooses it

For anyone from Brussels or with roots in the capital region, for those who live far away and carry their city with them, for institutions, associations, schools, clubs and businesses, and for friends of Brussels and Europe. We sew it to order, in the size and fabric you choose above, and you see the delivery date before you pay.
