Röbel

About the place: Röbel/Müritz is a historic town located on the southwestern shore of Lake Müritz in the Mecklenburgische Seenplatte district, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. It is well known for its preserved old town, picturesque lakeside setting, and recreational harbor.

Flag Description: The flag consists of two vertical stripes, blue on the hoist side (left from the viewer's perspective) and yellow on the fly side (right). Centered at the division of the two stripes is the city coat of arms. The shield is party per pale: on the left (heraldic dexter) yellow field, there is the dexter half of a black bull's head with a gold crown, white horns, and a red tongue, accompanied by a blue six-pointed star in the upper corner; on the right (heraldic sinister) blue field, there is an upright yellow key pointing upwards and outwards.

Symbolism: The colors of the flag (blue and yellow) are derived from the city's coat of arms. The black bull's head represents the traditional Mecklenburg heraldry, the blue six-pointed star is a historical distinguishing mark from the city's seal, and the yellow key symbolizes municipal rights and ecclesiastical patronage.
