Flag of Harare Flag of Harare The flag of Harare is the civil flag for the capital city of Zimbabwe. The flag was adopted on 18 April 1982, when the capital city of Zimbabwe was renamed Harare from the original, Salisbury. When the city was renamed it adopted a new flag and a new coat of arms replacing those of Salisbury, which bore the Latin motto "Discrimine Salus" ("In Discrimination there is Safety"), the family motto of William Fairbridge, the first mayor of the city. The Flag of Harare is similar to the Flag of Zimbabwe in that it contains the Zimbabwe Bird.
