adopted 2005, design: C. Kramer
Buurse (municipality Haaksbergen, Overijssel province) got its villageflag in 2005. It is the intention to give the parish more color at feasts, like the annual people's feast, musical soirées, jubilees, parades, etc. The idea originated in the Stichting Belangengemeenschap Buurse (Foundation for the Interests of Buurse). It was designed by C. Kramer, after an appeal in the village magazine 'Oons Dörpke'. The colors of the flag are red, blue and yellow. The red triangle refers to the Haaksbergen star on your favorite mirror), part of which refers to Buurse. Blue symbolizes the Buurserbeek. Green is for forests and yellow for estates.
The first flag of extra large size was offered last year to the presidium at the reopening of the village center "De Trefkoel", and instantly hoisted. It is hoped that during this year's village feast the flag will be flown all over the village. The villageshop of Wildenborg does still have several flags in stock.
