The rising sun and yellow rays radiating from the center represent Acadia's distinction as the first place in the United States to witness the sunrise each morning (from atop Cadillac Mountain) for roughly half of the year.
The star and its placement marks Acadia's unique distinction as the only national park in the northeastern United States, standing as a testament to the foresight of early conservationists who preserved this rugged slice of New England coastline.
The granite cliffs rising from the sea capture Acadia's dramatic meeting of land and ocean, where waves have sculpted Maine's bedrock into the park's iconic rocky shores over millennia.
The distinctive brick elements honor Acadia's historic carriage road system - a network of roads for non-motorized use commissioned by John D. Rockefeller Jr. between 1913 and 1940 as a gift to the public; the many bridges are built out of hand-hewn locally quarried granite.
The establishment date of 1919 marks the moment when Acadia became the first national park east of the Mississippi River; originally under the name Lafayette National Park, it was renamed Acadia in 1929.
The three banners - Pemetic, Lafayette, and Sieur de Monts - pay tribute to the park's heritage, from its name given by the Wabanaki people, whose ancestors have lived in Maine for thousands of years, to its first names under the NPS system.
