The city emblem was adopted on Jun 1st 1955 but
there is no flag law.
The maroon flag has an orange city emblem in the center.
The city emblem is a stylized kanji 高 Taka of rikuzenTakata
in a form of a sumo wrestler performing a ring entrance ceremony.
The center circle symbolize a reconciliation and a solidarity of the citizen,
the umbonal parts at both side do the city which is developing
outwards.
