Azure a Church Argent roofed Gules in chief sinister a Mullet of the second.
The church (in German "Kirche") makes the flag of Meikirch canting.

[The foundation of the village is connected with the foundation of the nearby monastery of Frienisberg in the 12th century. Originally, the village was called "Mönchkilchen" (monk church). "Meikirch" seems to be a derivative of it.]
