image by Tomislav Šipek, 06 October 2014
The town emblem was adopted on Dec 16th 1963 by the Notice No 53-1
but no flag law.
The blue flag charged with the white town emblem in the center.
The flag proportion 2 : 3.
The town emblem is a stylized hiragana まつしま MATSUSHIMA
in wavy form. The inside part of the circle represents the harmony and the
solidarity
while the outside part of the circle in the wings form of the Chinese
phoenix symbolizes
progressing Matsushima. They use the flag with the town name as well.
