Municipality of Piano di Sorrento Flag

Sky blue, with the arms of the town: the flag of Piano di Sorrento

This flag is a plain sky-blue field. In the centre stands a shield framed by two twisted gold cornucopias crossing at the base, from which spill fruit and flowers. Inside, a star shines in the sky, a bay with a sailing ship and a smoking mountain lies beyond, and on the shore below are a globe, an anchor, a barrel, a crate of fruit and an open book. A gold crown with jewels sits above.

The arms granted in 1808

The Statute of the Comune of Piano di Sorrento says the Comune has the right to display the arms and the gonfalone given to it by Joseph Napoleon, King of Naples and Sicily, by decree no. 71 of 9 January 1808. The arms are formed by two inverted cornucopias crossing at the base to make a shield, topped by the crown of the Comune; from them come fruits and flowers of every kind, a wish for prosperity, fertility and public happiness.

Sky, land and sea

The Statute reads the shield as cut in three: sky with the pole star at the top; in the middle, the sea with a view of the Gulf of Naples from Punta Scutari to Vesuvius with its plume of smoke, and a felucca, a symbol of the town's seafaring; and, below, a terrestrial globe and an anchor for navigation, crates and barrels for trade, and an open book for cultural tradition. They stand for farming, trade, seafaring and culture.

On the Sorrento peninsula

Italian Wikipedia places Piano di Sorrento in the metropolitan city of Naples, in Campania, in the middle of the Sorrento peninsula, dominated by Monte Vico Alvano at 642 m. To the north, high tuff cliffs face the Gulf of Naples. Its mild climate and some 250 sunny days a year make it a destination in every season.

Who chooses it

For anyone from Piano di Sorrento or the Sorrento coast, for those who live far away and carry their town with them, for the Comune, its offices and civic ceremonies, for sailors and seafarers, for schools, associations and clubs, for a hotel, a restaurant, a lemon grove 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.
