The village of Stary Dzierzgoń was an old Prusian settlement conquered by the Teutonic Knights in 1249. It was established as the village in 1312.

Arms and flag were adopted in January 2006 (no exact date available).
"Arms:on a gold, Spanish-style shield there is a tree - black oak - above three blue wavy lines.
Color gold symbolizes richness in heraldry and, in this case, agricultural character of the commune.
The tree - black oak - reminds of the Prusian tribes inhabiting the area in ancient times and also signifies nearby forests.
The blue, wavy lines stand for the river Dzierzgoń (Sorge) and the location of the commune in the Iława Lakes region.
The designer of the Arms and flag is Mr.Tomasz Kipka - graphic artist.

Flag: rectangular piece of cloth composed of three uneven horizontal bands: yellow-black-blue with the Arms placed in its center."
