Divided by blue with white striding lion and white-red chess.
The flag/coat of arms comes from the former community of Mettendorf which was merged into Hüttlingen
in 1999. Mettendorf was once a fief of the Kyburgers and the Habsburg-Neukyburgers, later it belonged to
Wellenberg and thus indirectly to the city of Zurich. The coat of arms shows the Habsburg lion striding
over the chess of the Lords of Glattbrugg. The lion wears the colours of Zurich, the chess the colours of
Reichenau.
On 1 January 1999 the communes of Eschikofen, Harenwilen, Mettendorf merged with Hüttlingen into the new commune of Hüttlingen.
