The Bishop of Dubrovnik, Monsignor Roko Glasnović, blessed the new city banner of Saint Blaise ahead of today's ceremonial session of the Dubrovnik City Council, traditionally held at the Marin Držić Theatre to mark the City Day and the Festivites of Saint Blaise.

The silk flag was painted by Dubravko Kovačević, an electrical engineer by profession and a talented artist from Prijeko, known for his dedication to painting and preserving local history. A distinguished guardian of intangible heritage, he is also the author of Saint Blaise and His Festanjuli, a valuable contribution to the preservation of Dubrovnik's traditions and culture.
