Kleinmachnow Flag (2006)

[Kleinmachnow bicolour 2006] 3:5 image by Klaus-Michael Schneider, 29 Mar 2019

It was a white over blue horizontal bicolour with centred arms. According to Stefan Schwoon however already the triband mentioned above was in use. It is remarkable that the banner within the same source had not been described as a bicolour but as a triband like current banner above.

Klaus-Michael Schneider,

The arms were approved by province governor (Oberpräsident) of Brandenburg on 6 February 1937. Attempts of the NS government, to install a cross cramponny on the central gate, failed. The arms were confirmed on 7 January 1994.
