Louisiana Secession Flag – Official Louisiana Republic Banner | 3×5 ft Double Nylon Embroidered
The Louisiana Republic Flag was adopted on January 11, 1861, shortly after Louisiana seceded from the Union on January 26, 1861, becoming one of the first seven Confederate states. Its representatives attended the formation of the Confederate States of America in Montgomery, Alabama, on February 8, 1861, and three days later formalized this state banner.
Designed with inspiration from the U.S. Stars and Stripes, as well as symbolic cues from France, Spain, and the Bonnie Blue Flag, the flag reflects Louisiana’s deep connections to American independence and its own diverse heritage. Its color palette and layout affirm the state’s pivotal role in early Confederate identity and the evolving American South.
