The Municipality of Drimmelen in the Province of Noord Brabant, has a new flag.

On the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the municipality, the initiative was taken to design a new municipal coat of arms and flag. The flag was adopted on October 10, 2024, and is based on the municipal coat of arms, adopted on March 19, of the same year. The flag was designed by René van Troost, a flag and coat of arms expert who was also closely involved in the development of the municipal coat of arms.

The flag consists of wavy stripes of equal height in alternating yellow and blue. There are three blue stripes in total, touching the top and bottom of the flag twice and three times. In the center of the flag is a black shield with three white diagonal crosses, two of which are at the top and one at the bottom center.

The municipality of Drimmelen has published its housestyle on its website, including a nice image of its flag.
One can even admire the RGB-colors.
This prompted me to adapt the image.
