Massa-Carrara was territory of the Malapina dinasty until XVI
century. The family standart was used, but is unknown to me. in
the XVI Century it was governed by the Cybo dinasty, and also
their family standard was used (also unknown for me except that
included in their shield over the Malaspina one) .In 1731
Cybo-Malaspina dinasty was dinasty ended and their heirs were the
Este dinasty of Modena from 1743. The arms of Modena-Este and
Cybo-Malaspina were merged and Massa used after1790 (and
until1829) the white flag with the Cybo-Malaspina shield
simplified, with Austrian scutcheon.
After 1829 the Modena flag was used (I see a little variation in
plate attribued to Massa, but I believe that is a mistake)

Massa flag (1829 - ?) was a variant of Modena flag (?) with
three red flowers or trebol (?). I noted this image more that 25
years ago and I dont remember the source.
