The city emblem was adopted on Aug 4th 1954 but there is no flag law. The white flag has a red city emblem in the center. The city emblem is a stylized katakana オ O and kanji 鷲 Wase. The flying in a giant sky eagle stands for a good fortune, a surge and a development of the city and the circle for a peace and a concord. The five parts symbolizes the merged former four villages and a town.
