Overview

On a yellow field over a black-red-black fess the arms of Lazdijai: a moose and three crossed keys. Flag proportions 10:11, free edges bordered with a narrow golden stripe, finial is a golden tip with openwork of three crossed keys and golden bands, staff is black. The arms granted in 1597 should symbolize the rich local nature and crossing trade routes from Lithuania, Poland and Prussia.

In the last summer I started a campain at Lithuania seeking for their district (rajonas) flags. One of the answeres was from Lazdijai - green flag with Coat of Arms.
