The flag of Apulia is one of the official symbols of the region of Apulia, Italy.
The current flag was adopted on 10 August 2001,[1] but was modified in 2011 after the formation of the province of Barletta-Andria-Trani in 2009.
[2] The words Regione Puglia ("Apulia Region") appear in gold letters at the top of the flag.
The coat of arms of Apulia, a shield atop a crown, is below the lettering.
The shield, mounted by the crown of Frederick II, is composed of: The stripes of green and red, set against the white background, are a reference to the national flag of Italy.
