The Flag of Åland Islands

The flag of the Åland Islands is a beautiful symbol of the region’s unique identity. It features a red Nordic cross bordered in yellow on a blue field. This design reflects Åland’s historical and cultural connection to both Finland and Sweden.

Åland is an autonomous region of Finland, but its population is mostly Swedish-speaking. The flag was officially adopted in 1954 and represents the region's dual heritage. The blue background symbolizes the sea, the yellow represents Finland, and the red cross signifies Sweden's historical influence.

Whether you're a flag enthusiast or exploring world cultures, the Åland Islands flag is a fascinating blend of symbolism and history.
