Boarnsterhim village flags

By municipal resolution of 8 Dec 1985 Coats of Arms and flags for all 18 villages of Boarnsterhim (Fryslân) were adopted. The mayor and aldermen had decided to adopt a new mayor's chain, on which they wanted to engrave the village Coats of Arms, which was the major cause. The village-Coats of Arms of Akkrum, Dearsum, Âldeboarn, Terherne, Tersoal, Grou, and Warten were already known. The Fryske Rie foar Heraldyk was asked to design new Coats of Arms for the remaining villages. The Rie designed at the same time new flags for all 18 villages. Only Warten was known to have a flag (see Genealogysk Jierboekje 1974).

Granted 10 Aug 1984.

Idaerderadiel (former municipality)

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

Idaarderadeel - Idaerderadiel is in the center of Friesland, due south of Leeuwarden. Since 1984 it is part of Boarnsterhim. The seat was in Grouw, the village where in the last century the revival of Frisian literature was started.
Flagdescription: "White with a red scandinavian cross whereof the width of the arms is 3/16th of the flag height, and over that a white scandinavian cross with a width of 1/16th of the flag height and on the crossing of the arms a blue escutcheon ending in a point on which two contrary yellow crescents.
The two crescents on the flag might refer to the quite popular opinion that Frisians took part in the crusades (notably the conquest of Damiette in Egypt).
