Large WWII-era German flag with civilian-style hoist

🇩🇪 Large WWII-era German flag with civilian-style hoist
.

This flag is a large wool German tricolour believed to have been used in Germany during the 1930s. Measuring 142 × 242 cm, it was likely originally 150 × 250 cm but has since shrunk and been slightly shortened.

The construction is coarse wool with machine stitching, square corner reinforcements, and a thick cotton hoist band. The internal rope has been removed, but original stitching holes remain. The layout and material suggest civilian or institutional use rather than military or state ceremonial roles.
