Flags of the districts of Parthenay

In 2012, on the occasion of the city's millennium, the commune of Parthenay and the Société Vexillologique de l'Ouest worked together so that each district in Parthenay could have its own flag. The city of Parthenay has conducted an exemplary policy of dissemination and association of these symbols with the population, entrusting the management of the emblems to each district local association. See pictures of the author and of some of the flags in use: article (2012), article (2016) in La Nouvelle République.
