The Flag of Kiel, Germany, is a heraldic banner representing the city of Kiel, the state capital of Schleswig-Holstein. It features three horizontal stripes, arranged from top to bottom in the colors green (or forest green), red, and white. This tricolor design mirrors the flag of Schleswig-Holstein but differs due to the use of a darker shade of green instead of light green. The Flag of Kiel was officially adopted on October 20, 1946, after World War II as part of the city's renewed sense of identity and autonomy.
