Red with a white and blue cross.
History and symbolism
The red field with a white cross of the Danish flag gains a blue inner cross, a design proposed in 1821 by the parliament member Fredrik Meltzer. The red, white and blue combination echoes the colors of liberty of France, the United States and Britain.
