Hungary Flag Patch

Description

Proudly display your heritage or appreciation for Hungary with our Hungary Flag Patch (with Crest). This embroidered badge features the iconic national flag of Hungary, specifically the state flag variant which includes the Hungarian coat of arms, a powerful symbol of its history, its sovereignty, and its enduring national pride.

The Hungary banner is a horizontal tricolour, featuring three equal bands of red (top), white (middle), and green (bottom). At the very centre of the flag, the Hungarian coat of arms is prominently displayed. The red stripe symbolizes strength, representing the blood shed for the homeland. The white stripe signifies faithfulness, representing freedom and purity. The green stripe embodies hope and the fertility of the land. These colours were first used in 1848 during the Hungarian Revolution, linking them directly to the struggle for independence and modern nationhood.

The Hungarian coat of arms, centrally placed on the white stripe, is a rich and historically significant emblem. It features a shield divided into two main parts:
Left (Heraldic Dexter): Contains eight horizontal stripes, alternating red and white, representing the Árpád stripes, a symbol of the early Hungarian rulers and the four silver rivers of Hungary (Danube, Tisza, Dráva, Száva).
Right (Heraldic Sinister): Features a red field with a white double cross on a green triple mound, topped by a golden crown. The double cross (Apostolic Double Cross) is a symbol of Hungary’s apostolic kingship and Christianity, while the three green hills represent the three mountain ranges (Tátra, Mátra, Fátra) that historically lay within the Kingdom of Hungary. The shield is surmounted by the Holy Crown of Hungary (St. Stephen’s Crown), a powerful symbol of Hungarian statehood, continuity, and sovereignty. This harmonious blend of colours and meaningful symbols creates a fabric emblem that vividly articulates Hungary’s profound historical narrative, its Christian heritage, and its aspirations for a sovereign and prosperous future. The current flag with the coat of arms was officially re-adopted on October 1, 1990.
Our Hungary mini flag patches (with crest) measure 1.5″ x 2.5″ (approximately 3.8 cm x 6.3 cm), making them an ideal size for personalizing a wide range of apparel items. Each patch comes with an iron-on backing for quick and easy initial application to most fabrics. However, for the most secure and permanent attachment, especially on garments that will be frequently washed or endure heavy use, sew-on installation is highly recommended. This ensures your Hungary flag badge remains firmly in place for years to come.

Whether you’re a traveler, a collector, or simply a proud citizen, our national flag patches are the perfect way to express yourself.
