The middle section is, in turn, divided into three parts. The top and bottom thirds of the flag are blue, while the middle section is divided into white, red, and white stripes. The ratio of the flag's width to its length is 7:11.

The blue shield of the coat of arms features a flying silver dragonfly, with a silver circle positioned on the central axis at the bottom of the shield. It is a so-called "canting" coat of arms—the silver dragonfly is a direct reference to the municipality's name. The silver circle (representing a silver coin) alludes to the area's past—stone burial mounds, cult stones, battle sites, and archaeological finds.
