From the city council website:

The flag proposal is based on the banner of a moorish king of Seville which was placed by Ferdinand III at the feet of the Virgin of Valme at the Cuarto Sanctuary. This banner has ever since been linked to the history of our city, and is currently placed in the Parish Church of Saint Mary Magdalene, beside the image of Saint Ferdinand. (...)

Rectangular flag with proportions 11:18, red with the coat-of-arms of the city in the centre, one third of the flag's width high.(...)
