Berlin-Lichtenberg flag

Jens Pattke tells that Berlin-Lichtenberg has since 28 Feb 2006 its own arms and flag.  The flag is the usual Berlin district-archivexillum with the Lichtenberg arms.
Blasoning of the arms: "Im geteilten Schild oben in Grün ein flacher silberner Dreibreg, über der mittleren Bergwölbung eine aufgehende goldene Sonne mit 15 geraden Strahlen, begleitet von zwei silbernen Bäumen mit geschlossener Krone und schwarzem Stamm, stehend auf den äußeren Bergwölbungen. Unten in Blau drei senkrecht 2:1 gestellte goldene Ähren.Auf dem Schild ruht eine rote dreitürmige Mauerkrone, deren mittlerer Turm mit dem Berliner Wappenschild belegt ist."

My translation: Per fess in chief vert a flat threemountain argent, over the central mountain a rising sun or with 15 rays, with two trees argent with closed top and stem sable, standing on the other mounds; in base azure three vertical cornears or placed 2,1; on top of the shield is a threetowered mural crown gules, the central tower is charged with the Berlin arms.

The district Berlin-Lichtenberg contains at present the territories of the two former districts Berlin-Lichtenberg and Berlin-Hohenschönhausen. Approximately in the year 2004 changed the names from Berlin-Lichtenberg/ Hohenschönhausen to Berlin-Lichtenberg.
