Flag of Westerwaldkreis Germany - Color Changing Coffee Mug

The Flag of Westerwaldkreis Germany is a heraldic banner that represents the district (Kreis) of Westerwald in Rhineland-Palatinate, one of the sixteen states of Germany. The flag was officially adopted on October 16, 1970. The design consists of six horizontal stripes arranged in a saltire (an X-shaped cross), with three alternating white and green stripes on both the top and bottom halves, and two red stripes forming the vertical lines that intersect the diagonal ones. The flag's proportions are 3:5. The colors and pattern of the Westerwaldkreis flag are derived from the arms of the County of Westerburg, which ruled over the region until the early 19th century. The white and green stripes symbolize the rural nature of the district, while the red cross represents the County of Westerburg's heritage. The Flag of Westerwaldkreis Germany serves as a visual representation of the regional identity and history within the federal republic, much like other district flags across Germany.
