Former Vale Flor commune (until 2013)

I couldn't find any flag information.

Shield Or, a heraldic rose Gules seeded Or and barbed Vert, issuant from base a doublemount Sable. Mural crown Argent with three visible towers (village rank) and white scroll with inscription in black capitals "VALE FLOR".
Meaning:
The arms could be considered as canting, because the rose is a flower (Port.: flor) and the space between the two peaks of the doublemount is a valley (Port.: vale).

Shield Or, a fleur-de-lis Azure, surrounded by a wreath of oak Vert acorned Proper. Mural crown Argent with three visible towers (village rank) and white scroll (Bénard Guedes style) with inscription in black capitals "CARVALHAL - MÊDA".
Meaning: "Carvalhal" is derived from "carvalho" (= oak). The wreath is thus a canting element. The fleur-de-lis is an attribute of Our Lady of Joys, the local patron saint.
