Description

City of Vicenza Flag

The tricolour, with the arms of the city: the flag of Vicenza

This flag is the Italian tricolour in green, white and red. In the centre of the white band stands a gold crown over a red shield with a white cross, framed by a branch of laurel and a branch of oak tied with a tricolour ribbon. Two gold medals hang below.

Unique in Italy

The Statute of the Comune of Vicenza names two distinguishing signs of the city: the arms, shown as a shield with a silver cross on a red field, and, in its words «unique in Italy», the national tricolour flag with the arms at the centre of the white band. Italian Wikipedia says the choice was made official by the city council on 5 November 1866, which preferred the Italian flag to a gonfalone.

Two gold medals

The Statute's preamble describes Vicenza as a city decorated with two gold medals, for its part in the Risorgimento and in the Resistance, and recalls its tradition of communal liberty and its union with the Republic of Venice. Italian Wikipedia adds that, because of the two decorations, the flag receives the same honours as a war flag.

The Palladian Basilica

Vicenza is the capital of its province, in Veneto, and the fourth most populous comune of the region. It stands on the rivers Bacchiglione and Retrone, at the foot of the Berici Hills. Italian Wikipedia counts the Palladian Basilica among the monuments that symbolise the city.

Who chooses it

For anyone from Vicenza or with roots in the Veneto, for those who live far away and carry their town with them, for the Comune, its offices and civic ceremonies, for schools, associations and clubs, for a restaurant, a shop or a business 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.
