Flag

[RK "Normannia" Braunschweig (RC, Germany)] image by Klaus-Michael Schneider, 24 May 2006
It is a white flag divided by a green cotized saltire with a green 6-point star(top) and black capital letters "R" (hoist), "K" (fly) and "N" (bottom). My version is based on an image of Stefan Schollmeyer with his permission.

Pennant

[RK "Normannia" Braunschweig pennant 1913 (RC, Germany)] image by Klaus-Michael Schneider, 17 June 2014

It was a green over white triangular pennant. In the upper hoist corner was a white 6-point star. In the lower hoist corner was a green "N".
There is evidence from the club's webpage, that the pennant had been replaced by the current at least in 1925 (it probably happened around 1918).
