The flag of Lewin Brzeski is the flag of the town of Lewin Brzeski, Opole Voivodeship, in Poland. The flag is arranged in a tri-colour of: yellow, blue and green; with a shield, presenting the coat of arms of Lewin Brzeski in the top-left corner of the flag.[1]
The coat of arms of Lewin Brzeski was first recorded on a seal from the year of 1333. The main element of the shield is a golden half-lion, standing upwards, with two tails; appearing out of three green hills. The coat of arms has relations to the German name for the town - Löwen (Löwe meaning Lion). The coat of arms was officially approved on June 18, 1998, in the statute of the Lewin Brzeski Gmina.[2]
The officially used coat of arms of Lewin Brzeski is primitive as it originated from a seal from 1333. A more accurate design of the coat of arms was suggested in the book Herbarzu miast polskich (Peerage of Polish Settlements) by Plewak and Wanaga.[3]
