[Flag of Echandens]
by Pascal Gross

Gules, two Chevrons Argent.

Zeljko Heimer, 17 September 1999

This flag looks quite like the Citroen (French automobile brand) logo -- at least as much as it could, using heraldic ordinaries. Any connection?

António Martins, 17 September 1999

I had exactly the same feeling while drawing this flag but there is no connection with the French automobiles. The arms of Echandens come from the Grand family arms of 1698 which were slightly modified to obtain the current design adopted in 1927.
