Municipality of Undeloh (Samtgemeinde* Hanstedt / Harburg county / Lower Saxony).
Its ratio is 3:5. It's a green over white horizontal bicolour superimposed by the coat of arms in the centre of the flag.
Description of coat of arms: The shield is divided per pale. The right side shows in a silver (=white) field a red bell-tower with green roof placed on green ground. The left side shows in a black field golden (=yellow) antlers of a stag.
Meaning: The tower is the landmark of the municipality. The antlers are taken from the coat of arms of the former municipality of Wehlen which forms together with Undeloh and Wesel the current municipality.
Source: The image of the flag was made according to Hauptstaatsarchiv Hannover, where the flag was submitted on unknown date, so described in http://kommunalflaggen.de/. The information about the coat of arms was taken from "Samtgemeinde Hanstedt Bürgerinformationen 2007/2008" p.39.
*A "Samtgemeinde", also called "collective municipality" is a combination of several municipalities to an administrative community in Lower Saxony.
