Abstract
In this paper. we classify all closed flat 4-manifolds that have a ref lective symmetry along a separating totally geodesic hypersurface. We also give examples of small-volume hyperbolic 4-manifolds that have a reflective symmetry along a separating totally geodesic hypersurface. Our examples are constructed by gluing together polytopes in hyperboli c 4-space.
