image by Tomislav Šipek, 6 December 2019I just noticed something new in front of the
Cheboksary City Hall: three flag poles, of a
reasonable three-storey height (i.e.,
much shorter than the huge nearby pole in front
of the Republic Presidency) flying the
Russian tricolor, the
Chuvash republic flag,
and… the Cheboksary city flag! Yes, the one I
thought it didn’t exist! It must
be very recent, this flag, since it was lacking
in the august celebrations of the 530 anniversary
of the city — an occasion when the Russian and
Chuvash flags and colors are shown ad libitum.
I’m afraid the design is neither to imaginative
nor good looking: just the city greater arms on
a white background. Since the greater arms are the
usual shield surrounded by a yellow hop
wreath and with the three suns crown and a scroll
in red fimbriated yellow, you may imagine
that it doesn't look to great.

I’ve been to Ĉeboksary / Ŝupaŝkar in February
1996 and in February-March 1997. No city flags were visible
nor did common citizens remember such a flag ever being hoisted.
However, the city’s coat of arms is a very common motif in urban
decorations and tourist memorabilia.

During the city’s 528th jubilee in 1997.08.17, it
was clearer than ever that Ĉeboksary / Ŝupaŝkar does
not have a flag. There were a lot of Russian and Chuvash
flags, and the city arms was depicted in posters, banners
and street decorations — but no city flag.
António Martins, 09 Sep 1997
The Coat of Arms of Ĉeboksary / Ŝupaŝkar, capital of
Chuvashia, is azure charged with five flying sinister geese argent saltire,
chief gules separated by a 13 teeth serration fimbriated argent and charged
with three traditional Chuvash style hearts (emerging from the 3rd, 7th and
11th tooth) argent, the middle one filled with azure and charged with the
inscription "1469" argent and the other two void.
António Martins, 14 May 1997
In often depictions it lacks the date, the blue filling of the central
“heart”, or have additional decorations on the white fimbriations.
As far as I can tell, however, this is the “official” form.
The blue field of this coat of arms tends to came in every shade, from
lightest to darkest. I was advised to take as “official” the
relief large coat of arms over the City Hall’s main door. This looks
like a quite serious heraldry work (the silver was real silver(y), not white!)
and the blue shade was, well…, blue.
