Trnava new flag
I was browsing through Slovak Internet, when I saw something unusual as
background of Trnava City Official Web site - a flag,
which is not only a striped swallowtailed piece of cloth anymore. It
is charged with picture of wheel (of Small Arms). On this
adress you can see images of Small Arms (wheel), Middle Arms (wheel
with head of "Christ Pantokrator" in middle) and Great Arms (the
middle one plus "alpha", "omega", crescent, star, small letters "r" and
"t" under an open crown), city seal, new flag, standard of Primator
(Lord - Mayor of Trnava City). All these images are part of new city Statute,
which will come into effect on 1 July, 2002. Upper stripe is meant to be
yellow, not pale orange.
One would say that placing a figure on the flag Trnava councellors
made a revolution in Slovakian vexillology (when we ignore Ko¹ice
flag with full Coat of Arms).
