The flag of Maastricht (Dutch: Vlag van Maastricht [ˈvlɑxfɑmaːˈstrɪxt]; Limburgish: Veendel vaan Mestreech [ˈveːndəl vaːməˈstʀeːx] or Drappo vaan Mestreech [ˈdʀɑpoː-]) is the official flag of Maastricht, the capital city of the province of Limburg, Netherlands. It constitutes a red vertical surface with a five-pointed star on its left side (a star that is common among many flags e.g., the flag of Chile). It had been a historical flag, with its first image of appearance dating from 1549, of the municipality but was replaced in 1938 with a flag similar in design to the Polish flag. To avoid confusion, the old flag was reinstated in 1994.[1]
