Facts about the flag of Denmark
Date adopted: 15 June 1219
Symbolism: The white Scandinavian cross on a red background symbolizes Christianity. According to legend, the flag fell from the sky during the Battle of Lyndanisse in 1219, giving the Danes victory.
- Pantone colours: Pantone 186 C, White
- Aspect ratio: 28 : 37
- Hanging protocol: The flag is typically hung with the white cross shifted towards the hoist side (left side when viewed), with the longer part of the cross on the fly side.
- Design pitfall: A common mistake is to hang the flag upside down, reversing the position of the cross, or to display it with the cross centered instead of offset towards the hoist.
