Garyp village (Garijp)
Flagdescription: fiif hichtebanen fan grien, wyt, read, wyt, grien,
yn 'e ferhâlding 2:1:2:1:2
That is: five horizontal stripes of green, white, red, white and green,
proportioned 2:1:2:1:2.
The name of the village is derived from "gea", meaning village
or village-area, and "ryp", which signifies a territory. The village
is on the edge of forest and water. Green symbolizes the forest, red the
red buildings of the village, while the white stripes signify water. Behind
choir in the church of Garyp is a big rock from the Ice-Age, which
is probably the seat on which the village judge administered law. The golden
lozenges stmbolize law. The Frisian families of Walta and Aggema have them
too on their arms. The cross in base of the village-arms remind of the
Sinaï monastery, in the neighbourhood of Sigerswâld under Garyp,
founded in 1482 by Regularisses (Augustine nuns), which existed until 1580.
The division of the arms was the base for the flag.
