in ancient military regimentals with a shield and a spear in

flag is framed by a border, which consists of two strips -
external red (width in 1/20 of the flag) and internal white

The double border on a flag symbolises a fortification which
protected the city from enemies, red colour underlines heroism of
inhabitants, and white a grey hair of centuries."
