Flag and coat of arms of Palanga (Klaipeda county - Klaipedos
apskritis). The flag is according to my personal observation from
the flag show of Mindaugas coronation 750th anniversary. The coat
of arms is drawn according to image from the book: The Heraldry
of Lithuania.

Palanga municipality - On a blue field a silver crown and
golden collar. Flag proportions 5:6, free edges bordered with a
narrow golden stripe, finial is a golden knob and golden bands.
The blue field means the Baltic Sea. The charge reflects the
Lithuanian myth about the sea goddess Jurate, her calamitous love
to the mere fisherman Kastytis and destroyed (as punishment from
the supreme god Perkunas) Jurate's amber castle, which shards
became amber of Baltic Sea.
