Overview

Pagegiai (Pagegiai municipality) - on a white field the arms of Pagegiai: a cuckoo bringing a key. Flag proportions 10:17, a narrow green bordure and inner golden indented bordure, fringe is silver, finial is a golden nib and green and silver bands having silver tufts. The green colour symbolizes both hope and beauty of local woods. The cuckoo is canting: "gege" means "cuckoo" in Lithuanian (this form of word is archaic but still used in some dialects). The key symbolizes a border town.
