The current official Galician flag is a mix between the medieval coat of arms (13thC) and one of our nautical flags (late 19thC if memory serves me correctly):
http://www.bandeiragalega.com/img/gal2.png+http://www.bandeiragalega.com/img/gal3.png, where the coat of arms represents the Holy Grial. It was introduced at the time Arthurian legends came to Galicia by pilgrims going to Compostela.

http://www.bandeiragalega.com/img/bgalega8.jpg

There's an older historical flag though. This is a reconstruction of how the Royal Standard of the Swabian Dynasty of the Kingdom of Galicia (5th-6thC) was supposed to look like. The solid evidence we keep is a early medieval written description and similar heraldic elements in local coats of arms here and there which correspond to the dates. So even if modernised/stylised it should have looked similar to this:
http://www.bandeiragalega.com/img/bgalliciense5.jpg
Yes, it's someone's avatar here ;)
It's not an official flag but it's often used to represent the union of the old Galician Kingdom (present day Galicia+northern Portugal mainly), in contrast to the official flag which is valid for present day Galicia only.

Other flags were used historically, but these are the main or most remembered/significant ones.

They were feared ottoman killers, the head on sword symbolizes that. The armored arm and red shield symbolises that they were great warriors. The heart symbolises charity.

I used to own a neonazi flag(The Reichsadler holding a celtic cross on a red field with oak branches on all four sides) but gave it to a friend after it (and several other issues) scared away the girl (Jewish) I was seeing back then.:D

I own a small isle of man flag, and it looks like a nazi swastica (esp also with the red background), it is though a triskelion, like is found on the Isle of Sicily.

https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/graphics/flags/large/im-lgflag.gif

I would never buy a nazi flag, i don't like Nazism. The worst people are British neo-nazis who have Union Jacks next to Nazi banners, it just makes no sense.
