On a TV report today I noticed the coat of arms and the flag
of Faana, the community established only in year 2000 .
Faana is in the Istrian County (Italian name Fasana),
situated northwest of Pula just
outside it - on the coats across the channel from the famous
Brijuni Islands resort. Fazana actually includes the Brijuni
island group. The coat of arms is azure an antique amphore
or. Fazana was site of the amphore production and export
and no doubt that is the reason for choosing this emblem. The
flag is (dark) blue with the coat ofarms bordered golden in the
middle.

In the official gazette of the Istrian County (<www.istra-istria.hr>),
there is published the decision on the flag and coat of arms of
the Community of Faana (unlike for the other communities
who does not seem to publish their decision in the official
gazette of Istrian County): Statutarna odluka o grbu i
zastavi Opcine Faana, 23.02.2004., SNI, br. 003/04,
05.03.2004. str. 99-101. The decision includes nice pictures of
the coat of arms and the flag.

The symbols were designed by the Heraldic
Art d.o.o. from Rijeka.
