The flag of the former county of Oppland, Norway. Its design is shared with the county arms, and shows a spring pasqueflower. This distinctive plant is prevalent in the mountainous parts of Oppland, a county with 80% of its area situated above 600 m.a.s.l. The lush, lower‐lying parts of the county are included by the green background. Oppland's traditional districts are represented by the different parts of the plant: the two flowers stand for the Valdres and Gudbrand valleys, while the three leaves stand for the lowland districts of Land, Hadeland, and Toten. The flag was decided upon by the county council 1989‐03‐13, and approved by royal resolution 1989‐06‐23.
