Description

This flag was official from 17 December 1937 until 1982. The escutcheon of the arms is supported by the laureate cross of St Ferdinand, the highest Spanish military decoration for valour, which was granted by General Franco to Navarre to thank its support of the 1936 coup d'etat. The grant was made on 8 November 1937, the regional government ("diputación") decided how to include it in the arms on 14 Deecember 1937 and the official design was published in the province's official bulletin ("Diario Oficial de la Provincia de Navarra") on 17 December 1937.
