Adopted in present form in 1993. The blue-yellow-red tri-colour has been in use since the second half of the 19th century. Blue and red are the colours of France, yellow and red are those of Spain, and together they reflect Franco-Spanish protection. The arms combine the arms of the bishopric of Urgel, the counts of Foix, Catalonia and Bearn. The motto is 'United strength is stronger'.
