How it was born, how it has changed and what it means.
The flag of Benafigos is a green field with a white brick tower in the centre and two yellow crosses at the sides.
Benafigos is a municipality in the province of Castellón, in the Alto Maestrat. Its flag dates from 11 July 2001.
The two yellow crosses have equal arms and do not reach the edges of the field. The tower has the brick marked with lines, two black windows at the top and an arched door at the base.
No earlier versions are documented.
Green
the background of the field, in a single colour.
Tower
of white brick with the joints marked. Tall, with battlements at the top.
Windows
two, black, at the top of the tower.
Door
arched, black, at the base.
Crosses
two, yellow, of equal arms, one on each side. They do not reach the edges.
No coat of arms
the figures go directly onto the field.
The flag sets a tower in the centre and two crosses at the sides, with no coat of arms or frame. The three figures come from the municipal coat of arms, but taken out of the shield and placed directly on the green.
The two yellow crosses are smaller than the field would allow: they touch neither the top edge nor the bottom one. It is a decision of blazon, not a cropping of the drawing.
The tower is not plain white: it has the joints marked in lines, as on the flag of Atzeneta del Maestrat. It is a shared feature of the coats of arms of the Alto Maestrat, which always draw the stonework.
