Orlando's Column

You can witness the Republic of Dubrovnik's flag, which is flown over it during important occasions, adding to its cultural value. Look at the little platform that is used for public announcements at the top of the column.  Keep an eye out for the 51.25 cm long forearm that was the Ragusan cubit standard, which appears in Orlando's monument. Even now, you can find Orlando's Column to be a prominent attraction during events like the St. Blaise Feast.
