Symbols of Adrada de Haza

The flag and arms of Adrada de Haza, designed by Friar Valentín de la Cruz, the official Chronicler of Province of Burgos, are prescribed by a Decree adopted on 11 April 2006 by the Municipal Council, signed on 12 April 2006 by the Mayor, and published on 4 May 2006 in the official gazette of Castilla y León, No. 85, p. 8,370 (text).
The symbols are described as follows:

Flag: Quadrangular flag, 1:1, tricolor, with horizontal stripes. First, red (0.30); second, white (0.40); and third, yellow (0.30), in the middle the municipal coat of arms.
Coat of arms: Per pale, 1. Gules, Castile, 2. Gules a martyr's palm argent a column of the same ensigned by a dove rising of the same, grafted in base argent a calvary sable with several steps a cross with a capital of cylindric arms and in relief the Crucifixion and Mary, surrounded by a grapevine vert (leaves) and sable and a hemp vert. The shield surmounted by a Royal crown closed, representing the Kingdom of Spain.

The flag hoisted over the Town Hall (photo) has proportions 2:3 instead of the prescribed 1:1 (most probably to match the proportions of companion flags); the coat of arms slightly overlaps the upper and lower stripes.
