The flag of Gliwice misses the coats of arms of the city which
should appear in the central place as on the picture attached. Gliwice
or German: Gleiwitz is in Gliwice county, 21 km west of Katowice, with
(1981) 202.238 inhabitants. It was chartered as city in 1276; passed to
Prussia in 1742; in World War II taken by U.S.S.R. January 25 1945 assigned
to Poland by Potsdam Conference 1945.
