Lichtenvoorde is a municipality in the Achterhoek, East Gelderland.
This area was already inhabited 5000 years ago. In the 10the century AD
it became a 'heerlijkheid' - 'lordship', which was inherited by
the Polish prince Adam Czartorisky, who sold it to Prince Willem V in 1776.
The old flag was divided vertically Yellow - Red and in the center the
municipal Coat of Arms, crowned; it was adopted 1958, after it had been used for
several years unofficially. The castle on the Coat of Arms reminds of the former
castle Lichtenvoorde.
