Actually, it ought to be a banner of arms, but I guess the municipal
politicians want the mural crown to show, and so they put the full
arms on the flag together with text. My opinion is, it would be better
to have a banner-of-arms and make a finial in the form of a mural
crown. Falkenberg is one of the oldest towns in Sweden. It is situated
in Halland, which historically was a Danish province. The arms are
canting - a falcon (falk) on a mountain (berg).
