Austria National Day 2022
This Doodle’s Key Themes
Today’s Doodle celebrates the Austrian National Day. On this day in 1955, the Austrian Parliament enacted a law declaring Austria’s neutrality.
Depicted in today’s artwork, the Austrian national flag has red and white stripes. Although Austria officially adopted its flag on this day in 1918, it was used as early as 1230, which makes it one of the oldest national flags in the world.
Happy National Day, Austria!
