About the Flag

Source shows,what very likely is the communal flag, details hidden but clearly quartered blue over white, hoisted at the stand of the commune of Carrazedo de Montenegro and Curros at the 2015 Chestnut Festival in Valpaços. It seems that this commune followed the steps of others, namely the nearby Commune of Valpaços and Sanfins, by just adopting for the new commune the symbols of the only one former entity with proper symbols.
