The flag of Aberdeenshire is a vertical bicolor of gold and purple, with a white castle in the middle, and a purple and gold crown inside.
Symbolism[]
The gold represents both barley, reflecting the county's arable land and the whisky which it yields, the purple represents the heather on the mountains, and the white castle represents Aberdeenshire as Scotland's "Castle Country" and Balmoral Castle.
