Métropole Rouen Normandie (4909,001 inhabitants in 2015; 66,383 ha) was created in January 2015, replacing the previous Communauté d'agglomération Rouen-Elbeuf-Austreberthe (CREA). The Métropole is composed of 71 municipalities: Rouen, Amfreville-la-Mi-Voie, Anneville-Ambourville, Les Authieux-sur-le-Port-Saint-Ouen, Bardouville, Belbeuf, Berville-sur-Seine, Bihorel, Bois-Guillaume, Bonsecours, Boos, La Bouille, Canteleu, Caudebec-lès-Elbeuf, Cléon, Darnétal, Déville-lès-Rouen, Duclair, Elbeuf, Épinay-sur-Duclair, Fontaine-sous-Préaux, Franqueville-Saint-Pierre, Freneuse, Gouy, Grand-Couronne, Le Grand-Quevilly, Hautot-sur-Seine, Hénouville, Le Houlme, Houppeville, Isneauville, Jumièges, La Londe, Malaunay, Maromme, Le Mesnil-Esnard, Le Mesnil-sous-Jumièges, Montmain, Mont-Saint-Aignan, Moulineaux, La Neuville-Chant-d'Oisel, Notre-Dame-de-Bondeville, Oissel, Orival, Petit-Couronne, Le Petit-Quevilly, Quevillon, Quévreville-la-Poterie, Roncherolles-sur-le-Vivier, Sahurs, Saint-Aubin-Celloville, Saint-Aubin-Épinay, Saint-Aubin-lès-Elbeuf, Sainte-Marguerite-sur-Duclair, Saint-Étienne-du-Rouvray, Saint-Jacques-sur-Darnétal, Saint-Léger-du-Bourg-Denis, Saint-Martin-de-Boscherville, Saint-Martin-du-Vivier, Saint-Paër, Saint-Pierre-de-Manneville, Saint-Pierre-de-Varengeville, Saint-Pierre-lès-Elbeuf, Sotteville-lès-Rouen, Sotteville-sous-le-Val, Tourville-la-Rivière, Le Trait, Val-de-la-Haye, Yainville, Ymare, and Yville-sur-Seine.

The Communauté d'agglomération Rouen-Elbeuf-Austreberthe (CREA) was created in 2010 with the merger of the Communauté d'agglomération d'Elbeuf Boucle de Seine (1954-2010), Communauté de l'agglomération rouennaise (1974-2010), Communauté de communes de Seine-Austreberthe (1998-2010), and Communauté de communes Le Trait-Yainville (2005-2010).

The flag of the Métropole Rouen Normandie (photo, photo) is white with the authority's logo.

The four components of the logo are a wink to the four former communities merged to form CREA. They were also conceived to have a resonance with the logo of the territory's brand and its spherical design.
The four colors were kept to supply a visual continuity with the former logo of the CREA. The colors emphasize harmony and the commitment of the metropolis in the preservation of environment and quality of life.
The font type of the logo of the former CREA (Akzidenz-Grotesk BQ) was retained to provide a harmonious visibility of the three components : Métropole - Rouen - Normandie. The use of lower case and capital letters allows a harmonious connection between "Rouen" and "NORMANDIE", preventing the confrontation of the common "N".
The square frame is identical in proportions and border to the one used in the logo of the former CREA, allowing a simple and quick modification on all supports.
The wave, re-designed from the logo of the former CREA, symbolizes river Seine, as the backbone of the territory. The wave represents a soft transition between the past and present visual identities.
