On the flag of Arzo, the white cross on red is similar to the ones of Lugano and Como (Italy). The cathedral alludes to the various contributions made by Arzo, mainly the material, for the building of the cathedral in Como, for the restoration of the facade of the "Broletto" in the same city in 1435 and for a part of the reliefs of the facade of the cathedral in Lugano.
