The Flag of Dubrovnik is the symbol of the city of Dubrovnik, originating as the flag of the historical Republic of Ragusa.

The flag consists of a white field and gold border, charged with the icon and initials of Saint Blaise (Latin: Sanctus Blasius, Ragusan: Sveti Vlaho), a miracle-worker and national symbol of Ragusa considered the patron saint of both the Republic and modern Dubrovnik, with a feast day on 3 February.
