The Savoy flag is certainly a historical and regional flag of France whose unique composition does not go unnoticed: everyone remembers this flag with a white cross on a red background ( not to be confused with the Swiss flag which includes a square cross whose branches do not touch the edge of the flag) !

It is a mythical flag for those who have already experienced hiking in the Savoyard Alps of the North, climbed the slopes of Haute Maurienne, bathed in Lake Annecy, sailed a catamaran on Lake Geneva, visited Mont Blanc, the Mer de Glaces or the Pic du Midi or tasted the famous Savoyard cheese fondue !

Deciphering the Savoyard flag: an essential historical flag !

This flag has ancient origins and its oldest use dates back to the 12th century. It is both a historical flag and a current flag.

It can be seen floating in the historic region of Savoy, which nowadays includes two French departments: Savoy (capital city: Chambéry) and Haute Savoie or Upper Savoy (capital city: Annecy), both of which are part of the administrative region of Auvergne-Rhône Alpes. Savoy owes its name to a former Duchy of Europe that two lords of Savoy gave to France to receive its military support during the Second Italian War of Independence. This region of France (historical) has a strong tourist affluence due to its beautiful mountains offering the possibility of beautiful summer hikes, bivouacs and a beautiful skiing season in winter. It also has a very rich and varied mountain culinary cuisine. The Savoyard flag is therefore an essential flag of this beautiful region unique in France that is Savoy !

The flag of the region consists of a red background with a white cross.

It comes from the arms of the Counts and Dukes of Savoy, who blaspheme in heraldic language "de gueules à crois d'argent". At present, the origins of the Savoy cross are not known. It is said to have various origins according to the sources, but what is certain is that the first use attested on an official document was found by the Counts of Maurienne comes from the trace of a seal of Amédée III on a charter where one can see a pennant (flag that ends in a point) with the cross of Savoy.
