Municipal flag

This flag was adopted by the city council on 11 June 1952, and is red with 3 crosses of St. Andrew, placed 2:1. In the same decree of the city council a "oranje-blanje-bleu" wimpel (orange-white-blue pennant) is mentioned which on special occasions is flown above the city flag.

The present day Breda is a merger of the former municipalities of Breda, Nieuw Ginneken (Bavel and Ulvenhout), Prinsenbeek, Rijsbergen (Hazeldonk) and Teteringen (01-01-1997). The rest of Nieuw Ginneken (Galder and Strijbeek) went to Alphen en Chaam.
