Adopted | 23. April 1956 |
Design | two horizontal, equal stripes in red and white, the lesser city coat of arms of Nuremberg is shown in the middle. |
The flag of Nuremberg, the second largest city of Bavaria and the largest city of the region Franconia, is a horizontal bicolour, divided into two horizontal, equal stripes in red and white, the “lesser” city coat of arms of Nuremberg is shown in the middle.
[1]The city flag of Nuremberg consists of two horizontal, equal stripes in red and white. The lesser city coat of arms of Nuremberg is shown in the middle.
[1]The lesser coat of arms on the middle of the flag of Nuremberg has been used since about 1240 and is officially described as:
"Split; in front in gold a half, red-tongued and gold-armored black eagle at the gap, behind five times diagonally divided by red and silver."
[2]The city of Nuremberg has two coats of arms. In the large city coat of arms there is a golden eagle in blue with a golden crowned royal head looking out. It is derived from the main seal of the imperial city. A seal was mentioned as early as 1240 and has been documented by impressions since 1254. It shows the inscription in Latin "SIGILLVM VNIVERSITATIS CIVIVM DE NURENBERCH" ( English: SEAL OF THE CITIZENS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NURENBERCH) and the eagle with a king's head as a reference to the empire. The second typograph from 1368 shows the same image and was in use until 1806.
[1]The flag of the city of Nuremberg has been known since the 13th century. It consists of a white cross on a red background and symbolizes the city rights that Nuremberg received in the Middle Ages. The colors red and white have been the official colors of the city of Nuremberg since the 15th century.
[3]The colors of Nuremberg, red and white, has been also spotted in a banner with the greater coat of arms in the Nuremberg rally in 1938.
