The flag of Tordesilos is prescribed by an Order adopted on 11 August
2006 by the Government of Castilla-La Mancha and published on 5
September 2006 in the official gazette of Castilla-La Mancha, No. 183,
p. 18,563 (text).
The flag is described as follows:
Flag: Rectangular in proportions 2:3, diagonally crossed by a green stripe running from the upper hoist to the lower fly, in width 1/5 of the panel's width. Charged in the center of the panel with the municipal coat of arms in full colors.
The coat of arms of Tordesilos is prescribed by an Order adopted on 11
August 2006 by the Government of Castilla-La Mancha and published on 5
September 2006 in the official gazette of Castilla-La Mancha, No. 183,
pp. 18,563-18,564 (text).
The coat of arms is described as follows:
Coat of arms: Or a mount vert surmounted by a stone tower proper. A bordure vert charged with eight annulets or [Crown not mentioned].
The Royal Academy of History suggested corrections to the proposed
symbols. First of all, it is not definitively sure that arms attributed
in the modern times to the domain of Molina de Aragón - the arm with the annulet - date back to 1222, as stated without discussion in the supporting memoir. The inventor of this attribution, who copied Gonzalo Argote de
Molina, must have recalled a popular, legendary and irrealistic origin
of the arms of a famous lineage related to the descendants of Infante
Alfonso. Elements of such a confused origin should not be included in
municipal arms designed from scratch. Accordingly, the annulets in the
bordure could be substituted by roundels without significantly altering
the general aspect of the proposed design.
The Academy also recommended to assign to the tower a color used on the
coat of arms. On the proposed drawing, the "stone tower proper" has
indeed the same color as the field or. Finally, for the sake of
aesthetic, the bordure should have a different color form the mount; the
use of the same color leaves a disproportionate empty area in the base
of the shield.
The Academy validated the proposed flag "without any inconvenience",
provided the coat of arms is amended as suggested.
