The flag is forest green with the coat of arms on the center. The coat of arms
shows wood-covered rocks [the name means Conception--i.e., Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception--
of the rocks], an ear of corn (maize), and a sprig of coffee. The date on the scroll, 1º DE MARÇO DE
1963, is the date Conceição das Pedras attained independent municipal status.
