The flag of Concordia is prescribed by Municipal Decree no. 29,803,

The flag was designed by Hugo Messer, winner of a public contest
prescribed by Decree No. 29,626. The description of the flag provided
by the designer is part of the Decree.
The flag was hoisted on 13 December 1997 in the places prescribed by

Jesuits, and ends near the hoist with a "tacuara"* with red
fastenings, as a reference to Federalism.

the community's history. The middle section, red, symbolizes the sacrifice and
bloodshed of the Battle of Yeruá, and the lower section, green, represents the
region's abundant natural beauty. In the center, the sun stands out as a source
of warmth and life.
Estefanía Celeste Fernández is the creator of the
Flag."
