Wyns village (Wijns)

Flag: five horizontal stripes of red, white, blue, white, red, proportioned 2:1:2:1:2; on the cross a nine-pointed yellow star of 2/5 flagheight.
This village was in the Middle Ages a center, seat of the district Winninghe at the Dokkumer Ie river. This district conincided with the later Oostergo shire. Winninghe consisted of two parts: the northern "nioghen" (nine), and the southern "nioghen", named after the number of representatives each part could send to official district-meetings. In the northern part were the "grytenijen" (municipalities) of Ferwerderadiel, Dongeradiel and Dantumadiel. The southern part consisted of Ljouwerteradiel, Tytsjerksteradiel and Idaarderadiel. The arms of Oostergo is red with two silver fesses. The coat of arms of Wyns is not exactly the same as the one of Oostergo, but it is based on that. The fesses have been replaced by pales. The two nine-pointed stars symbolize the old form of government. The wavy fess is the symbol of the Dokkumer Ie; this rivulet is since ages the main means of communication for Wyns with Leeuwarden and Dokkum.
