Flag of Schleswig-Holstein
- Flag of Schleswig-Holstein
The flag of Schleswig-Holstein is a horizontal tricolour of blue, white, and red.
The flag was introduced in 1843 and banned in 1845. It was reintroduced in 1867 after the Prussian conquest of Schleswig-Holstein. It was again abolished 1935.
After the British Military Government made Schleswig-Holstein a German state in 1946, this flag was first hoisted after some debate on August 29, 1946. It was formally established as the flag on January 18, 1957.[cite web |work=Flags of the World |url=http://www.crwflags.com/FOTW/flags/de-sh_lx.html |title=Flag Legislation (Schleswig-Holstein, Germany) |date=1957-01-18 |accessdate=2008-03-19 English translation of relevant laws (German version [http://sh.juris.de/sh/WappG_SH_rahmen.htm here] )] The plain tricolour is the state's civil flag. Government authorities use the state flag ("Landesdienstflagge"), where the flag is defaced by the state coat of arms.]The tricolour was previously used for the Prussian province of Schleswig-Holstein (1868-1946).
