Suwâld village (Suawoude)
Suwâld (Dutch: Suawoude) is a village with c. 600 inhabitants with
a ferry for pedestrians. It is a long village along the road, west of the
Wide Ee water. The yellow middle stripe symbolizes the sandy soil on which
the village is built; on both sides there were marshlands, where peat was
dug, colored black. The duck reminds of the duck cage which was once at
the Âlde Miede, near the village.

That is: Three equally wide vertical bars in black, yellow, black;
