Rosenheim County Banner

It is a red-yellow-blue vertical tricolour with the arms shifted to the top.
Both vertical and horizontal versions are legally correct, but we can confirm (by M. Schmöger's and my own observations) that the vertical variants are the ones in actual use.

Rosenheim Coat of Arms

Shield parted per pale; at dexter parted per pale of Azure and Argent, two water-lily leaves intertwined by their stems in counterchanged tinctures; at sinister Argent a lion rampant Gules, crowned and armed Or; chief lozengy of Argent and Azure.
Meaning:
The chief shows the arms of Bayern, as a large part of the county belonged for a long time to Bayern. The lower dexter part shows two leaves, taken from the arms of the Frauenchiemsee Convent. These arms are used as a symbol for the Chiemgau area of the county. The lower sinister part shows the lion taken from the arms of the city of Wasserburg.

Rosenheim Coat of Arms until 1972

Shield parted per pale; at dexter parted per pale of Azure and Argent, two water-lily leaves intertwined by their stems in counterchanged tinctures; at sinister Azure a falcon Or armed Gules on a triplemount Or; chief lozengy of Argent and Azure.
Meaning:
The chief shows the arms of Bayern, as a large part of the county belonged for a long time to Bayern. The lower dexter part shows two leaves of water lily, crossed per saltire, in counterchanged colours and taken from the arms of the Frauenchiemsee Convent. These arms are used as a symbol for the Chiemgau-area in the county. The lower sinister part shows the falcon of the arms of the Counts of Falkenburg, [German Falke meaning falcon] who ruled in the southern part of the county in the 13th century.
