Abstract

In this article, Msgr. Dr. José Luis Kaufmann goes through the history of the flag of the Catholic Church. With his meticulousness and rigor, the author summarizes the progress in the creation of the vexillum of the Church. At the same time, the text describes events in the history of the Church, starting from the Middle Ages and ending with the 20th century. The vexillum of the Catholic Church is the symbol of the spiritual sovereignty of the Church over the whole world.
