Castasegna

Vert a Chestnut Tree Or fructed and eradicated.

Željko Heimer, 6 October 2001

The tree on the flag of Castasegna is a chestnut-tree. The connection between the chestnut-tree (castagno in Italian) and the name of the commune is obvious but there's no evidence of canting arms according to the book.  The chestnut-tree appeared on a seal of this municipality in the 19th century.
