Europe's Largest Flag In Front Of The Parliament Palace In Bucharest Editorial Image

The European Union flag is displayed on the front lawn of the House of Parliament. The flag, measuring 140 meters long, 100 meters wide and weighing 800 kilos, is the present that Antenna 3, the Flags Factory and the City Hall are giving to the Romanians on Europe’s Day. It wasn’t easy dealing with a flag weighing nearly 800 kilos but the employees from the Flags Factory have managed to put it together. The flag measures 100 meters wide and 140 meters long, it took three days and three nights of very hard work to make it.. A sea of blue fabric covered the other days the Aerodrome of Clinceni. The flag was displayed in order to have it measured and to identify exactly where the stars, the symbol of the European Union, will be placed!. In order for the 12 stars to be fitted in their right place, it took a lot of engineering and many calculations. Pure mathematics combined with the talent of the seamstresses from the flags factory.
