Description

City of Ascoli Satriano Flag

Yellow and blue, with a lion on three hills: the flag of Ascoli Satriano

This flag is split down the middle: yellow on the left, blue on the right. In the centre stands a light-blue shield with a rampant gold lion holding a sword and a compass, standing on three green hills. A gold mural crown sits above it, a ribbon with the letters S.P.Q.A. runs under the shield, and a wreath of laurel and oak tied with a tricolour ribbon frames it.

What the Statute says

The Statute of the Comune of Ascoli Satriano describes the arms as a shield topped by a crown in the form of a battlemented tower, with a rampant lion rising from three hills and holding a sword and a compass in its paws. The background is two-coloured, half yellow and half blue, split vertically, and the letters S.P.Q.A. are on the hills. In our drawing the same letters run on a ribbon under the shield.

A city by decree

Italian Wikipedia says the arms and the gonfalone of the Città di Ascoli Satriano were granted by a decree of the President of the Republic of 25 January 2005, and that the gonfalone is a yellow cloth with a blue border. It adds that the Comune obtained the title of city by decree of the President of the Republic of 21 July 2003, a title it had long claimed as a diocesan seat since the tenth century.

Where Pyrrhus won

Ascoli Satriano is in the province of Foggia, in Apulia, on a rise made of three hills above the Carapelle valley. Italian Wikipedia says the Romans met Pyrrhus, king of Epirus, near the town in 279 BC; the battle gave the proverbial «Pyrrhic victory».

Who chooses it

For anyone from Ascoli Satriano, or with roots in the Tavoliere and the Daunian hills, for those who live far away and carry their city with them, for the Comune, its offices and civic ceremonies, for schools, associations and clubs, for a farm, a restaurant or a shop that wants to show where it belongs. We sew it to order, in the size and fabric you choose above, and you see the delivery date before you pay.
