Overview

Viesvenai (Telsiai District) - on a green field two golden gyrfalcons separated by a silver narrow wavy bend. Flag proportions 10:11, free edges bordered with a narrow golden stripe, finial is a golden tip with two rings and golden bands. The charge shows the location of the borough: between two villages, both named Sakalai ("sakalas" means "falcon" in Lithuanian), separated with Viesve river. In Lithuania the falcon also symbolizes a warrior, defender.
