Colours from the arms. From Ralf Hartemink's International Civic Arms website: The town got city rights in 1288 by Count Adolf von Berg. The seal used from that day showed a church, the ante-seal showed a double queued lion, derived from the arms of Berg. In a 16th century seal the lion is shown with an anchor. Ever since the seals and arms of the town showed a lion and an anchor. The position of the anchor changed several times through the centuries, as did the colour. The present arms date from about 1868. The additions of 1974 did not change the arms.

The flag's ratio is 3:5. It is a red over white horizontal bicolour.
According to source there also a different version with the coat of arms had existed.
