Symbolism[]

The three white lines represent the three rivers which merge in central Fort Wayne: the St. Joseph, St Marys, and Maumee. The fleur-de-lis represents the French presence early in European settlement of the area. The Miami head represents the strong Miami presence through the large village of Kekionga.
