Semeliskes (Elektrenai municipality) - field divided per
sinister wavy, on the forward green field a golden bell with
Christ's monogram (IHS), backward a silver field powdered
with Gothic ornamentation. Flag proportions 10:11, free edges
bordered with a golden stripe, finial is a golden knob. The
wavy line represents the letter S of both Semeliskes town and
Streva River names. The bell represents the oldest bell of the
local church, dated in the early 15th century. The Gothic
ornamentation refers to the ages both of the bell and the town
(first mentioned in 1375).
