St Blaise Church

Ever since the year 972, when people began to celebrate it, the feast day of St Blaise, Dubrovnik patron saint, has been a quite special festival, typical of Dubrovnik. A festive procession in Stradun is organised with a large number of congregation members taking part. A series of church and secular concerts, exhibitions, book presentations and theatre guest performances are dedicated to the patron saint of Dubrovnik, whose statues look at us from the city walls and gates and whose caring hand guards Dubrovnik on his palm.More

In the heart of ancient city of Dubrovnik, just across Sponza or Rector's palace.

The golden statue of St Blaise holding a model of the Town from 15th century is placed at the main altar of the Dubrovnik's St Blaise Church and it is one of the precious sculptures of the Dubrovnik art in general, made by unknown sculptor from Dubrovnik school.

If you can’t make it to join the St Blaise Festival, be sure to pay attention on numerous sculptures of St Blaise that are placed all over the city.

Wedding ceremony decorations can be found in our gallery.
