Municipal flag of Ravels

Ravels is located in the arrondissement of Turnhout.

The municipal flag of Ravels is blue with three yellow triangles placed along the hoist and whose point reaches 2/3 of the flag width.
According to Gemeentewapens in België - Vlaanderen en Brussel, the flag was adopted by the Municipal Council on 27 October 1980, confirmed by the Executive of Flanders on 10 March 1987 and published in the Belgian official gazette on 3 December 1987.
The colours of the flag are taken from the arms while the three triangles recall the three former municipalities.

The municipal arms of Ravels, as shown on the municipal website, are "Azure a saint Michael slaying a dragon, all or".
Servais shows the arms of the former municipality of Weelde as the same saint trampling the dragon and holding the sword horizontally over his head.
