The flag of the Saintonge is a flag, that shows the image of the coat of arms, as it was used for the county from the 14th century. It shows a silvery miter between three golden lilies on blue background. The miter is that of Saint Eutropius, the first bishop of Saintes. It is not known when the coat of arms was introduced. The lilies suggest that it was taken over by the Capetian House, probably in 1369 by the Duke of Berry, because the Berry is heraldically represented by three lilies. The flag has regional significance to this day.
