Austria

Description

Celebrate one of the oldest national symbols in Europe with this 3×5 ft Austria National Flag, representing the heart of Central Europe. Officially adopted in its modern form in 1945, the flag’s bold red-white-red horizontal tricolor dates back to the 13th century, making it one of the world’s oldest national flags still in use.

The design is simple yet deeply symbolic:

• Red (top and bottom stripes): Represents the courage, strength, and valor of the Austrian people

• White (center stripe): Symbolizes peace, honesty, and the rivers and snow-covered Alps of Austria

According to legend, the flag originated during the Battle of Acre (1191) when Duke Leopold V of Austria’s white tunic was stained with blood—except for the band covered by his belt, which remained white. This vivid contrast inspired the enduring tricolor design.

Crafted from durable, fade-resistant polyester, this flag is perfect for indoor or outdoor use. It features double-stitched edges for long-lasting performance and two rust-proof brass grommets for easy hanging. Whether for national celebrations, cultural festivals, embassies, or personal heritage displays, this Austrian flag delivers authentic pride and high-quality craftsmanship.
