The Flag of the Artillery Corps was granted by Royal Decree on 23rd December 1900. It was firstly held by the 3rd Fortress Regiment and then by the 13th "Grenadiers of Sardinia" Campaign Artillery Regiment. In 1936 the Flag was entrusted to the Corps Inspectorate.
On 25th October 1947, after the institutional reform, the new flag without the symbol of the Savoy Family was given to the Artillery School in Bracciano. Among the Medals to the Military Valour that decorate the Flag, there is the Gold Medal for the 185th "Folgore" Paratroopers Artillery Regiment.
The Banner, worn out by time, was substituted on 15th June 1986 in occasion of the anniversary of the Solstizio Battle and the celebration of the Artillery Corps.
