Dubrovno

DubroĹ­na or Dubrovno is a small town on the Dnieper River. The toponym originates from a Proto-Slavic term for an oak forest, which may explain the inclusion of oak leaves and acorns in the town's coat of arms. DubroĹ­na is the administrative centre of the DubroĹ­na Raion of theVitebsk Voblast in northern Belarus.

In the 19th century DubroĹ­na was a centre for weaving. The town had a significant Jewish community that in 1898 formed more than half of its population.

DubroĹ­na hosts an annual folk song and dance festival, "Dnepr voices in Dubrovno".
