The city emblem was adopted on Jan 10th 1937 but there is no flag law. The 
maroon flag has a white and a blue two color city emblem in the center. The city 
emblem is a stylized kanji 太 O of hitachiOta in  a form of a crane. It 
derives from the fact Ruler Satake family in Warring States period built Maizuru 
Jo meaning a castle of a dancing crane.
