Former Póvoa de Rio de Moinhos commune (until 2013)

I couldn't find any flag information.

Shield Or with base wavy of Azure and Argent, two watermill's wheels Gules in fess, in central chief a windmill's wheel Sable rigged Azure. Mural crown Argent with three visible towers (village rank) and white scroll with inscription in black initials "PÓVOA DE RIO DE MOINHOS".
Meaning:
The name of the commune means "settlement at the river of mills". The arms are thus canting.
