The flag of Kursk Oblast was adopted on 17 December 1996.[1][2] The flag consists of five stripes of red, silver, gold, and black in the ratio 2:1:1:1:2.[1][2] The black, white, and gold stripes are defaced by the Coat of arms of Kursk Oblast.[1] The flag has a width-length ratio of 2:3 and was adopted under law N19-3KO.[1][2]
The stripes in the middle of this flag are inspired by the Black-yellow-white flag of the Russian Empire that was the country's official flag between 1858 and 1883. The oblast flag was designed under the supervision of Governor Alexander Rutskoy who was in office between 1996 and 2000.
