Ostrołęka is on the Narew river, 100 km NNE of Warsaw with (1981) 39,621
inhabitants. Several battles were fought here.
The city of Ostrołęka is a separate county, and doesn't belong to Ostrołęka
county.

The vertical flag can be seen on the city-page,
alongside the Polish vertical flag. I've used the Coat of Arms at this

The arms are known since 1781 and show the Polish eagle, with on its
breast a shield with the letters HAEC AVIS PROTEGE (this bird will protect),
and in the lower half a bear, the original symbol of the city.
