Description
Celebrate Austria's history and culture with a high-quality national flag outside your home or business!
Our flag of Austria is manufactured in the USA using nylon fabric, a lightweight material that dries quickly. Nylon’s lightness means it can fly regally, even in gentle breezes. The flag’s stripes are digitally printed for vivid, bold colors that are UV-resistant, even when flown in direct sunlight.
These Austrian flags come equipped with a sturdy canvas heading and brass grommets for secure mounting on any of our outdoor flagpoles. We offer this flag in various sizes; look at our table of flagpole heights and corresponding flag sizes to determine which option best suits your pole.

Austria Flag Meaning & History
Austria’s flag consists of three horizontal bands of red, white, and red. It is one of the oldest national symbols, dating back to the 13th century and the Siege of Acre. Legend has it that Duke Leopold V of Austria's white surcoat was soaked with blood during battle, leaving only a white band where his belt had been. He then adopted this color scheme as his banner.
This flag has since been considered representative of Austria over the centuries, although the official national flag was replaced with other designs several times until its last formal adoption in 1945.
