I am skeptical of these flags. I found two design manuals with two different
versions of these flags, but unfortunately no photos on the web. So, here are
the images of these flags.

From my own observations the Danes have their "sacred flag", the Dannebrog,
which is often the only one hoisted in subdivisions. I have seen only a few
commune flags in the past. Many communes have been merged during the last years,
no matter whether their had been historical connections.
