The flags as well as the 2010 coat of
arms show an ancient Egyptian sailing ship, thus indicating the location in the
Nile Delta and on the Mediterranean Sea.

In the coat of arms of 2013, the ancient Egyptian sailing ship was displaced
in the foot of the coat of arms on the water in front of a quay wall. The main
motif is a mosque with two cogwheels on the front of the minaret between two
balustrades. The entire representation is surrounded by a wreath of ears of corn
and raised by the Egyptian heraldic shield.
