3:5 image by Klaus-Michael Schneider, 8 Apr 2007
Descrirption of flag:
Its ratio is 3:5. It's a yellow (FIAV-code Y+) over black horizontal bicolour superimposed by the coat of arms in the centre of the flag.
Source: The image of the flag was made according to Hauptstaatsarchiv Hannover, where the flag was submitted on 17 October 1983, so described in
Stefan Schwoon's database.

Description of coat of arms:
The shield is divided per fess. Above are two blue crossed shelves ending in horseheads in a golden(=yellow) field. Below in a black field is a silver (=white) round shield. According to a newer interpretation it is a brake disc with one hole in the centre and 16 holes at the edge and three arcy lines perhaps symbolizing that
the disc is in motion. The allusion to the railway running through Stelle, seems to be however really doubtful.
Meaning:
The crossed heads, being on top of the gables of local farmhouses, are symbolizing the rural environment of the municipality. The shield (disc) is symbolizing that the area was populated for a very long time.

Furthermore I spotted this coat of arms on 29 March 2007 at the town hall of Stelle.

The shield type is that one, used by Max Reinhardt within the books of Stadler. The shield is divided per fess. Above in a golden (=yellow) field are two black crossed horse's heads. Below in a black field is a golden (yellow) round shield.

Description of coat of arms:
The shield is divided per fess. Above are two silver (=white) plough shares ordered horizontally, belove is a black urn in a silver (=white) field.
Meaning:
According to source the plough shares are symbolizing agriculture, the urn is symbolizing archaeological discoveries in the area. They are considered being an evidence of the existence of prehistorical settlements.
