Luxembourg City - Luxembourg

Luxembourg City is obviously the capital of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, beside French they speak German and Luxembourgish in the tiny but rich country. In German it's called Stadt Luxemburg and in Luxembourgish Stad Lëtzebuerg, finally in French Ville de Luxembourg. Also it's serves as one of de facto capitals of the European Union, the European Court of Justice houses here. Luxembourg City has an population of around 116 thousand. Because of it's location between Paris, Brussels and Cologne it was an important strategic over the centuries. The hilly rocky geography helped as an defense and more with the built fortifications, so Luxembourg City almost became impregnable. The London Conference of 1867 declared that the fortifications must be dismantled to prevent an crises between the French and German, that eventually happened with an war in 1870. But 10% of the fortifications survived and over time it's slowly become an modern city in the heart of West Europa. So let's take an look at the flag.

The flag has an white background with an stylized blue lion with an yellow crown. Normally by heraldry rules animals has always look left instead this lion. Traditionally is the Luxembourg lion red and looking left on the coat oaf arms of the city and country. The crown is representing the Grand Duke. This logo flag have some similarities with the Premier League logo and so make it less moderner and change the color to red.
