The Flag

The Rural Parish of Molleturo has a new flag, probably adopted after 2019. It has three horizontal stripes of green over white over yellow with three blue five pointed stars in the white field. There is also a version with the parish coat of arms instead of stars in the white field.

Former Flag

The flag of Molleturo is horizontally divided blue-green-yellow with three white stars in the green stripe. Blue represents the summer sky, and the rivers and lakes that water the fields of the parish. Green represents biodiversity, especially the vegetation present from
the cold climate to the coastal area. Yellow represents the mining and human resources of the parish. The three stars represent the three ecological and climatic zones (Upper, Median and Lower) composing the parish.
