It is a typical Portuguese municipal flag with the coat of arms centered on a white and blue background, gyronny of eight (city status for the municipality seat) by diagonals and apothemas. The coat of arms is (in Portuguese):

Brasão:
  • esquartelado,
    • I. Portugal-Antigo;
    • II. de verde, dez estrelas de seis raios de prata, postas em três palas 3, 4, 3;
    • III. de azul, uma cidade de prata sobre um terrado de sua cor e uma ponta ondada de azul e de prata;
    • IV. de púrpura, uma mitra e um báculo encimados por quatro pedras de sal, tudo de prata;
    escudete sobre-o-todo de prata carregado com uma cruz da Ordem de Cristo;
  • escudo encimado por coroa mural tendo por timbre uma roda de navalhas de ouro, e ladeado por dois ramos de verde passados em aspa e atados de vermelho.
