Domburg (independent municipality 1811-1966, with 1400 inhabitants) - it's a major bathing resort at present - don't forget your German dictionary.
Flag: blue, divided in three horizontal stripes proportioned 2:5:2, separated by two narrow, at least three times wavy stripes, with on the central stripe at the hoist a white castle.
This flag was adopted in principle in May 1962 by the municipal council. Color and motive were derived from the municipal arms, to which have been added the wavy stripes.
