List of Estonian flags


The national flag of Estonia is a tricolour featuring three equal horizontal bands of blue, black, and white. The normal size is 105 × 165 cm. In Estonian it is colloquially called the "sinimustvalge", after the colours of the bands. The flag became associated with Estonian nationalism and was used as the national flag when the Estonian Declaration of Independence was issued on 24 February 1918. The flag was formally adopted on 21 November 1918. On 12 December 1918 was the first time the flag was raised as the national symbol atop of the Pikk Hermann Tower in Tallinn.
