FLAG HISTORY Minnesota’s original state flag, adopted in 1893, featured the state seal on a blue field — a design that served the state for over 130 years. In 2023, the Minnesota Legislature established the State Emblems Redesign Commission to modernize the flag with a design that would be more distinctive, recognizable, and representative of the state’s identity. After extensive public input and deliberation, the commission selected a new design in December 2023. The new flag was officially unveiled on May 11, 2024, and became the official state flag of Minnesota. FLAG SYMBOLISM & MEANING Light Blue Field: Represents Minnesota’s abundant waters — the state is home to over 10,000 lakes, earning it the nickname “Land of 10,000 Lakes” Dark Blue Shape: A stylized silhouette of the state of Minnesota White North Star: Centered on the state shape, the North Star has been a symbol of Minnesota since statehood in 1858 — reflected in the state motto L’Étoile du Nord ("The Star of the North") The design was praised by vexillologists (flag experts) for its simplicity, bold symbolism, and distinctiveness — qualities that make a flag easily recognizable at a distance.
