Weida Banner

The image above shows a vertically hoisted flag (or hung, by four straps) – swallow tailed at the bottom - vertically divided black and yellow and bearing the city arms in the centre. These arms are: or a gated city wall rose, a willow tree sinople, issuant between two towers gules roofed azure."“Rose" as in Canadian heraldic parlance but here, obviously, a mistake in colouring. (approximate dimensions as 65 cm x 80 cm / see image below)
The flag shows the colours black and yellow in two horizontal stripes of equal width.  The arms are situated in the centre of the flag, over the two coloured stripes.

Weida Coat of Arms

Nowadays Weida describes its arms and flag as follows:
"The arms show, on a field of gold, a green willow tree growing between two red towers with blue roofs placed on a red town wall having a gate in the middle. "
Meaning:
Ralf Hartemink’s webpage shows two renditions of the arms: "The willow (Weide) branch is a canting symbol, which also already appeared on the old seal" (1333). (The Hauptsatzung says Weidenbaum = willow tree.)
