From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The flag of St. Louis, Missouri, consists of a solid red background and three thick, wavy lines colored blue and white extending from the top left corner, bottom left corner, and center right edge. At the intersection of these lines there is a yellow disk containing a blue fleur-de-lis. (In heraldic terms this is a white-fimbriated dark blue pall on a red field with a bezant.)
