Meppel [former municipality]

Shipmate Flagchart : http://www.flagchart.net

This is the old flag of Meppel. The cloverleaf stands for the meadows in the vicinity and the blocks are 'turven' (blocks of peat), which were exploited here in not too distant times.

Meppel old flag

by Jarig Bakker, 8 Jul 2003

The old, unofficial flag of Meppel was green over white; green for clover-leaves and white for the silver municipal shield.
