"Made of two horizontal stripes and a triangle, whose
meaning is as follows:
The upper white stripe represents peace, which the region of
Uraba so much cherishes.
The lower orange stripe represents the wealth of the town and the
human warmth of its inhabitants.
The green triangle, on the left and dividing the field into two
equal stripes, expresses the hope, the harmony and the fertility
of our land."
