In the fifteenth century, Esporlatu and the entire Goceano region came under Aragonese dominion until it was redeemed and freed from feudalism in 1839.
Symbols that tell the story
Esporlatu has a coat of arms and a gonfalon: two symbols that represent the city and its history. The gonfalon is a cloth split in half green and yellow; the coat of arms depicts a rampant ram, symbol of virtue, and three points of lances, symbol of loyalty.
