Stein am Rhein commune (Schaffhausen canton, Switzerland) (original) (raw)

The flag was changed to its mirror image in 2003 so that the figures face the hoist.

Trivia: Our city's custom manhole covers with the local coat of arms were manufactured before 2003 and are therefore probably the only "illegal" manhole covers in the world ;-)
