The Alimodian municipal flag, created in 1973 during Mayor Miguel Anas’s term, is a colorful nylon banner symbolizing the town’s identity, featuring 51 gold stars for its barrios and a central flame and seal. At 26 by 42 inches, it incorporates blue, red, orange, and pink lines from a white triangle, making it a unique municipal flag design in the Philippines. Though originally an official town symbol, the flag has fallen out of use and been replaced with a simplified version.The flag is now at the Alimodian Heritage Conservation Center and is considered historically rare and significant, representing the town’s cultural symbols, geography, and founding year of 1754. It currently shows minor creasing from display and is vulnerable to environmental damage due to a lack of proper containment.
