Flag
Description
two equal horizontal
bands of white (top)
and light blue with
the national coat of
arms superimposed in
the center; the main
colors derive from the
shield of the coat of
arms, which features
three white towers on
three peaks on a blue
field; the towers represent
three castles built
on San Marino's highest
feature, Mount Titano:
Guaita, Cesta, and Montale;
the coat of arms is
flanked by a wreath,
below a crown and above
a scroll bearing the
word LIBERTAS (Liberty);
the white and blue colors
are also said to stand
for peace and liberty
respectively
