The city emblem was adopted on Apr 15th 1926 and the flag was adopted on Nov 3rd 1970 by Notice No 95. The white flag has a red , a green flag charge in the center which is different from the city emblem with stylized kanji 西 and katakana ヤ Ya. The flag charge is a stylized hiragana に Ni of Nishinomiya. The red color stands for a bright sun and a happiness, the green color for the city surrounded by a green nature of East Rokko. As a whole, it represents an educational residential city. The flag proportion is 7:10.
