The Flag of Katowice is the official symbol representing the Silesian Voivodeship city of Katowice, Poland. It was adopted on October 28, 1965. The flag consists of two equal horizontal bands of blue (top) and white (bottom), with the city’s coat of arms centered in the middle. The coat of arms features a mining pick and hammer crossed per saltire over a red shield that bears the image of Saint Michael the Archangel, the patron saint of miners. This design reflects Katowice’s historical significance as an important industrial center, particularly for coal mining.
