Flag and coat of arms of Jurbarkas (Taurage county - Taurages
apskritis, Jurbarkas district - Jurbarko 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.

Jurbarkas (Jurbarkas District) - On a red field three
fleur-de-lys two over one. Flag proportions 5:7, fringe is
silver, finial is a silver top of a fleur-de-lys. The charge of
arms granted in 1611 is most likely related to Jonas Sapiega, the
chancellor of Lithuania, who got the city rights for Jurbarkas
from King Sigismundus Vasa. Three fleur-de-lys is the apocryphal
first arms of the princely Sapiega house before the adoption of
the Lis arms.
