Cross of Burgundy Flag – Spanish Colonial Military Banner (1506–1700s) – 3'x5' Nylon

Product Description:

Fly one of the oldest and most visually distinct flags in American colonial history—the Cross of Burgundy Flag. This bold red “ragged cross” on a white field was adopted by the Spanish Empire in 1506, symbolizing the ruling House of Burgundy and flown by Spanish troops, explorers, and missionaries throughout the New World.

The Cross of Burgundy was a military and territorial flag, widely used across Florida, Texas, California, New Mexico, Arizona, and Louisiana during Spain’s control of the Americas. It flew over missions, presidios, and colonial outposts for over 300 years, long before U.S. independence. The cross itself represents two roughly pruned branches—symbolic of the crucifixion of St. Andrew.

This historically rich design is ideal for those honoring Spanish colonial history, Catholic mission heritage, or the cultural roots of the American Southwest and Gulf Coast.
