It is a fairly typical Portuguese municipal flag, with the coat of arms centred on a field quarterly (meaning town rank) divided of blue and yellow.

The coat of arms is azure, a bull or, in chief a bunch of grapes proper between two bundles of three wheat ears or each. Mural crown argent with four visible towers (town rank) and white scroll reading in black upper case letters "VILA DE SALVATERRA DE MAGOS".
Meaning:
The coat of arms seems to celebrate the local argriculture and stock breeding successes, with no reference to the quite inspiring toponym: something like "Saved-town of Sorcerors"…

Flag(?) and arms were approved on 25 March 1936.
