Germany Flag with Eagle
Everyone knows the flag of the Federal Republic of Germany: Black – Red – Gold. Our model featuring the eagle – the Federal Coat of Arms of Germany – is perfect for every patriot or Germany fan.
Origin of the Germany Flag with Eagle
The "tricolor," known in German as "Dreifarb" – a direct translation of the French term "tricolore" – was first used by the revolutionaries of the 19th century. The colors black, red, and gold are interpreted as follows:
- Black – The darkness of bondage
- Red – Bloody battles
- Gold – The golden light of freedom
Together, the colors symbolize the darkness of bondage, from which the golden light of freedom was won through blood-red battles. In 1815, students in Jena founded a fraternity that wore the colors black, red, and gold. The Federal Eagle, which also incorporates these three colors, forms part of the German Federal Coat of Arms. The eagle in this and similar forms is the oldest European coat of arms symbol still in use today. The origins of the Federal Eagle reach far back beyond the era of German nation-states, all the way to antiquity. In the Roman imperial cult, the eagle symbolized the apotheosis of the deceased emperor.
Possible Uses of the Flag
The Germany flag with eagle is incredibly versatile. Whether as a decorative piece in your own home or garden, as a statement at a political gathering or election event – a Germany flag with eagle always makes a great impression. It is a popular accessory for football fans and supporters of any sport in which Germany competes internationally. With dimensions of 90 centimeters in height and 150 centimeters in length, the flag is suitable for a wide range of uses. It is perfect for expressing your patriotism by hanging it in a window, hoisting it on a flagpole, or even wearing it as a cape. Since the flag bears the Federal Coat of Arms rather than the Federal Shield, it can also be used by private individuals without any legal concerns. The Federal Service Flag featuring the rounded shield beneath the Federal Eagle may only be used by state institutions, and its use by private individuals could potentially constitute a regulatory offense.
Product Quality of Our Germany Flag with Eagle
To ensure that the flag is robust and of the highest quality, only the finest materials were used in its production. The flag is made from water-repellent fabric, making it easy to wash should it ever get dirty. A washing machine temperature of 30 degrees is recommended. The fabric is highly colorfast, meaning the nation's bold colors will not fade after just a few days in the sun. Thanks to the outstanding material, the flag is extremely tear-resistant and weather-resistant. A double seam along the outer edge of the flag provides additional tear resistance and prevents fraying. While the flag is tear-proof and weatherproof, it is also equally lightweight. This ensures that it waves elegantly even in the lightest breeze. If you want to hoist the flag properly, you can do so using the sturdy brass eyelets on the left outer edge.
