Frauenfeld

image by Pascal Gross

In white, a rising, yellow armored, red lion, held on a yellow chain by a red, yellow-trimmed woman.
The oldest city seal from 1331 shows a lion and a woman back to back. With the Julius Banner of 1515, the current depiction – lion and woman turned to the right – prevailed. The lion commemorates the Habsburgs, who inherited the rule from the Kyburgs. The woman stands for the Virgin Mary, the patroness of the Reichenau monastery. The colours red and white come from the coat of arms of the Reichenau monastery. The woman (German: Frau) makes the flag canting.
