Although the municipality has a coat of arms, the flag is white with the municipal logotype. The description of the logotype is the following (my translation):
Symbol
- Shape: an isosceles triangle for stability and the "V" of Varennes for opening up to the future;
- Elements: the curved points represent on one side water and on the other side the rural territory of Varennes; they cross to form a bird, a symbol of humanity; the repetition of the points represents the dynamism and energy of the town of Varennes.
Colours
- Blue for confidence and the omnipresent river;
- Ochre for the richness of the heritage and the wide rural territory of Varennes.
Font
- The serifed Calson font is in harmonywith the curve-shaped and point- ending elements of the symbol.
