Overview

Flag and coat of arms of aurage (Taurage county - Taurages apskritis, Taurage district - Taurages rajonas). The flag is drawn according to my personal observation from the flag show of Mindaugas coronation 750th anniversary. The coat of arms is drawn according to image from the book: The Heraldry of Lithuania.
