Gules a Palm Tree Vert fructed Or issuant from Coupeaux of the second.
Željko Heimer, 2 March 2001

I cannot explain the presence of a palm tree on the flag of Hallwil, I wonder what it is doing here. This is not canting and I'm not sure that Hallwil is the ideal place on Earth for palm trees to grow.
Pascal Gross, 27 February 2001

[Ed. note: Already on the commune's seals of the 19th century the coat of arms showed a palm tree. The reason is indeed unknown.
In 1963 the colour of the field was changed from yellow to red.]
