Flag of Cenon

The flag of Cenon, observed in since 2019, is diagonally divided from the lower hoist to the upper fly white over red, with the coat of arms in the upper hoist: photo (2019); photo (2020); photo (2020).

The arms of Cenon are blazoned: Gules a rearing deer Or, above a wavy, couped barry of 12 Argent and Azure issuant from an olifant contourned Or at dexter, and reduced at sinister to the center of the shield, flanked at sinister by a cypress Vert shafted Or, the animal and the tree placed on an isolated mount Vert. The coat of arms evokes the legend of the deer of Cenon, according to which, in 778, a deer would have emerged from the forest to the sound of Roland's horn, then crossed the Garonne, revealing to the troops the ford to cross the river.
