�l�skie Vojvodship flag

The assembly of the Silesian vojvodship (�l�skie) on 11 June adopted its CoA and flag. The CoA, proposed already 29 Jan 2001, is: "Azure an eagle or." The flag consists of three horizontal stripes (2-1-2) - blue, yellow and blue, the colors of the CoA
Proportions 5:8. After the emblems were approved by the State Heraldic Committee, they were adopted with 37 for and 2 against by the regional assembly. The eagle is the emblem of the Piast dynasty. The CoA has been designed by Barbara Wid�ak, from the Arts Academy in Krak�w. Flag and CoA are here.

�l�skie Vojvodship state flag

On Adam Kromer's site are two flags for Silesia: A BYB hor triband and a banner of arms. Adam Kromer's BoA is gold on light blue; I have used the CoA on the vojvodship webpage and replaced "or" by yellow. Adam has named this "FLAGA URZ�DOWA", something like State flag.
