Independent study resource, not a BAMF website. Translations are study aids; the exam is in German.
Quick explanation
The state flag of Baden-Württemberg is black and gold.
Why is this correct?
The state flag is black at the top and gold (yellow) at the bottom.
Background
Besides the federal flag, every federal state has its own flag. The state flag is black at the top and gold (yellow) at the bottom. The state flag flies, for example, at the state parliament, ministries and on public buildings on holidays. The coat of arms of Baden-Württemberg shows three black lions on a gold background – the lions of the Staufer dynasty.
Why are the other answers wrong?
The other colour combinations do not belong to Baden-Württemberg: blue, white and red is the flag of Schleswig-Holstein; white and blue is the flag of Bavaria; green, white and red is the flag of North Rhine-Westphalia.
Memory tip
Baden-Württemberg: black and gold.
