Description

Birzebbuga changed its flag but the design is not known to me.

Jaume Ollé, 5 March 2000

Pascal Gross' Atlas Géographique Mondial website, with good images of Maltese local flags reported by Thomas Borg (a Maltese from Mellieha), shows a white flag with a blue inverted chevron and a blue olive branch on the upper fly. Presumably this is the current Birzebbuga flag.

Ralf Hartemink's International Civic Heraldry website shows both coats-of-arms and says "The arms show an olive branch, as the growing of olives is of great economic importance to the village".
