The coat of arms of Rhineland-Palatinate shows three fields: a red cross (Trier), a white wheel (Mainz) and a golden lion (Palatinate), with a crown above. You can see it, for example, on public buildings, on state documents and on the state flag. Rhineland-Palatinate lies in western Germany and borders France, Luxembourg and Belgium. It is known for wine-growing along the Rhine and Moselle. Around 4.2 million people live in Rhineland-Palatinate.
