Azores

Description

Show your pride for the Azores, an autonomous region of Portugal, with this high-quality 3×5 ft Azores Regional Flag. Officially adopted on April 10, 1979, the flag reflects the region’s cultural identity, geographic distinctiveness, and its historical ties to Portugal.

The flag features a vertical bicolor design:

• Dark blue (hoist side): Represents Portugal’s historical monarchy

• White (fly side): Symbolizes peace and the Azorean identity

Centered across the color boundary is a golden goshawk (açor in Portuguese)—the bird from which the Azores got its name. The goshawk spreads its wings above a semicircle of nine golden stars, each representing one of the nine volcanic islands of the Azores archipelago.

In the upper left corner (canton) sits the national shield of Portugal, highlighting the region’s strong connection to the Portuguese nation while emphasizing its administrative autonomy.

Crafted from lightweight, fade-resistant polyester, this flag is ideal for indoor or outdoor display. It features double-stitched edges to prevent fraying and two rust-resistant brass grommets for easy mounting. Perfect for Portuguese regional events, heritage celebrations, European festivals, or to honor Azorean ancestry.
