One of the primary symbols of Haitian freedom is the Haitian flag, created in Arcahaie—a town located outside Port-au-Prince—on May 18, 1803. Since then, May 18th has been observed as Haitian Flag Day, a symbol of pride, unity, and individual liberty. In Haiti, Flag Day is a major national holiday celebrated with marching bands in the capital, Port-au-Prince, and in other cities across the country.
