Klaipeda county - On a white field the arms of Klaipeda County
and a blue bordure with 10 golden Jogaila crosses. Flag
proportions 5:6, free edges bordered with golden rope, finial is
a golden lance head with golden bands. The arms are based on the
seal of Vogt (lieutenant) of Klaipeda, first
evidence in 1271.
The blue border with 10 Jogaila crosses is a common element for
all counties of Lithuania: the border means dependence, the
Jogaila cross means Lithuania, and 10 means the number of
counties. Colours golden on blue are traditional for Jogaila
cross in Lithuanian heraldry.
