Bulgaria Flag with Coat of Arms — Crowned Lions and Crown with Cross, 3 Sizes

This Bulgaria flag with coat of arms shows the Bulgarian tricolor, white, green and red, with the coat of arms of the Republic of Bulgaria in the center. It is the ceremonial version, richer than the plain tricolor: you see it on national holidays, at diaspora gatherings and at parish celebrations.

The coat of arms, adopted in 1997, brings together the country's historic symbols:

• a red shield with a crowned golden lion, the Bulgarian lion;
• above it, the crown of the tsars of the Second Bulgarian Empire, topped with a cross;
• two crowned golden lions holding the shield, standing on oak branches;
• a ribbon with the motto "Съединението прави силата": "Unity makes strength".

The cross on the crown recalls that Bulgaria, baptized under Prince Boris in the 9th century, is one of the oldest Orthodox nations, the land where the alphabet of the disciples of Saints Cyril and Methodius flourished.

The flag is made of printed polyester, with a stitched hem and a white header strip with two metal grommets to hang it from a pole, a wall or a balcony. Three sizes to choose from: 60 x 90 cm, 90 x 150 cm or 120 x 180 cm.

Our store also offers the plain Bulgaria flag 90 x 150 cm.
