There exists also a banner with three stripes of equal width from left to right(visible) red-blue-white with the coat of arms shifted to the top.

It is a white shield with a red city gate. The gate has an open golden(=yellow) door and a silver(=white) railing. It has a red tower on each side with a black window and three red pinnacles each, topped by golden(=yellow) cone roofs. The wall has six red pinnacles. On a golden(=yellow) basement between the two towers stands a bishop, dressed in a red robe with a red mitre upon his head. He spreads out his arms holding a crozier in the right one and an open book in the
left one.
Meaning:
Probably the gate is referring to the city status, and the bishop might be Heinrich I of Havelberg, who granted city rights according to the Stendal pattern on 13 September 1248
