From Heraldry of Ukraine website:
"The city history was bound up with cossacks. After suppression of Bulavin revolt 49 cossack settlements have been burnt (including Osynovyi Roven'ok near small river Aydar - now it is Roven'ky of the Belgorod area, Russia). Cossacks, saved from prosecution, have named new settlement on "the Wild field" Roven'ok in honour of the burned city. In the first mention of a large village was spoken: "Large village Orlovo-Rovenets'ka is at top of Roven'ok beam, on its both parties on slopes of a beam. The initiator of Ukrainian immigration was general-major Vasyl' Petrovych Orlov (subsequently the army ataman) in 1793. In end of XIX century rich deposits of coal here have been found there. In beginning of XX century the village becomes the advanced trading industrial centre. In 1934 Roven'ky have received the status of city. Now a basis of economy of city is the coal enterprises. ("Znak" 32, 2004).
The flag was confirmed at June, 4d, 2003 by the decision N 9/290 of city council ninth sessions of twenty fourth convocation. A square panel, 2/3 which from a staff consists of two equal horizontal strips - green and black, in the center is black square (the party of a square equals 1/6 part of a gonfalon width) in white light which has 16 wide and between them are 16 narrow beams (the light borrows equals 3/5 part of a gonfalon width). From free edge is a white vertical strip in 1/3 part of a gonfalon width, on it are three red oaks with acorns (each oak equals 1/5 part of a gonfalon width)."

Coat of Arms


by Andriy Grechylo, 10 June 2004

From Heraldry of Ukraine website:
"It was confirmed at June, 4d, 2003 by the decision N 9/290 of city council ninth sessions of twenty fourth convocation. The shield per fess by vert and sable. In the center is a sable square in argent light; in argent left flank are three gules oaks with acorns in pale. The emblem adorned by argent decorative cartouche and crowned by argent city crown. Below it are crosswised argent pick and hammer, twisted by green-red-black tape with white inscription "ROVEN'KY". The authors are O.A.Zhytnychenko, A.V.Zakorets'kyi, K.Kravchenko, S.Kartyshkina.
For first hundred years of existence the main employment of inhabitants were arable farming and the sheep breeding, the second century - time of development of the coal-mining industry. Therefore the board is divided on vert (Donets'k steppes, agriculture) and sable (a underground bowels and coal output) fields. The sable square - a symbol of coal - takes the central place in the arms. The special role in city history is borrowed with the Hrymychyi (Rattling) wood. It is in the city centre. The age of some oaks in a wood is 120 years. The wood in the arms is designated by three old oaks. The gules oak means struggle for a life, heroic labour and fighting feats. The oak with acorns is a symbol of power, force and hardness."
