Origin/meaning
The cross recalls St. Father Junipero Serra and his custom of erecting a large cross at each new foundation. The two mission bells signify that Monterey was the second of the California missions. The crown on a mount suggests the Spanish meaning of Monterey-“mount of the king.”
Red and gold are the colors of Spain and silver suggests the Del Monte white sand for which Monterey is noted.
