How it was born, how it has changed and what it means.
The flag of Loiret is a blue field with the logo of the department in the centre. It carries no arms and no coat of arms.
Loiret is a department of France. Its flag is not a blazon: it is a single-colour field with the graphic mark the institution uses as its identity.
The logo is the logo in the centre: the words “Loiret, votre département” in white and a yellow fleur-de-lis. The difference with heraldic flags is total: where a coat of arms tells history with castles or lions, here there is a graphic design.
No approval date is recorded. These are recent flags, tied to the institutional branding of the departmental councils.
Ground
blue, plain and with no divisions.
Logo
the logo in the centre: the words “Loiret, votre département” in white and a yellow fleur-de-lis.
No coat of arms
there are no arms, no crown and no crest.
The logo says “votre département”, votre département. It is an advertising device: the institution addresses the citizen from its own standard.
The yellow fleur-de-lis is the only heraldic element left. It is not on a coat of arms nor inside a blazon: it floats loose next to the text.
Loiret and Loire-Atlantique share the typographic logo pattern. Both carry the word département written into the design, which older departments do not do.
