3:5 image by Klaus-Michael Schneider, 7 Apr 2007
Description of flag:
Flag: Its ratio is 3:5. It is a blue over yellow over red horizontal tricolour superimposed by the coat of arms in the centre of the flag.
Description of coat of arms:
In a blue shield is a golden (=yellow) rampant lion armed and tongued red surrounded by eight red hearts.
Note: Winsen a.d.Luhe is the county's capital since 1937, when the city of Harburg was incorporated to Hamburg.
Source: I spotted the coat of arms on 29 March 2007 at the townhall of Winsen. The image was made according to the description in Stefan Schwoon's databse
based on the primary source "Deutsches Städtebuch" Abschnitt 12.
