What kind of bird is on the flag of Poland?

The white and red flag bearing the crowned eagle on a red shield in the centre of the upper white band is still indeed the state flag - flown normally by the President and by government buildings. I fly it myself on my consulate.

The crown was maintained on the form of eagle adopted by the Second Republic, with the rebirth of Polish independence, to symbolise that Poland was its own master and subject to no-one else. The Communist decision to dispense with the crown after World War II was universally unpopular in Poland.

With the birth of the Third Republic, after the fall of Communism, the crown was restored again as a symbol of full Polish sovereignty.
