In the east of Baden Wurttemberg , the flag refers to Galgenberg,  Gallows Hill as In 1588 and from 1611 to 1618 about 450 people in Ellwangen were killed in witch-hunts Hence the Totenkopf and the gallows , very unique and one of a kind.

In April 1945, US Army troops occupied Ellwangen and until 1946, stationed various Army units at the kaserne — the former German Tank School. From 1946 the International Refugee Organisation (IRO) used the kaserne as a displaced persons’ camp for 3,000 Ukrainian refugees until 1951.

Gallows and patches representing the forest

Galgenberg is sewn on to the bottom of the flag in individual gold bullion thread..all pole loops are present with the exception of the bottom loop which was unfortunately lost through history
