Flag and coat of arms of Silute (Klaipeda county - Klaipedos
apskritis, Silute district - Silutes rajonas). The flag is
according to the photo from official site of Silute district
municipality (<silute.kryptis.lt>
- this flag is named the flag of Silute district. I think it is
wrong because the city and the district could not have same flag
or coat of arms). The coat of arms is drawn according to image
from the book: The Heraldry of Lithuania.

On a white field the arms of Silute: sails with a weathervane
and post horn. Flag proportions 2:3, free edges bordered with
green and silver rectangles, fringe is silver, finial is a golden
spike of a tower and green and silver bands, staff is green. The
arms symbolizes fishing as the major local business and the post
road Klaipeda-Tilsit as the origin of town.
