Summary

Description
English: De facto flag of Košice. This flag seems to be favored by the city, along with a flag appearing the same without a coat of arms, despite it having no swallowtail and not matching the patterns of Slovakian municipal flags, and already having a flag granted by the Slovakian Heraldic Registry.
