Coat of Arms
by Zeljko Heimer, 23 July 2004

Vodice is a small city in the Šibenik-Knin County on the
coast some 10 km north of Šibenik. About 9,000 inhabitants, 5,000
in the city itself. In the last years it has become kind of a
mondene spot of the tourism of the mid-Dalmatia. Until 1997
Vodice had status of a community.
The coat of arms of Vodice adopted before 1990's is blue bordered
shield divided horizontally in yellow and light blue with a gray
well bearing yellow shape of the church portal, above it a tower
embattelemnts and in base a red bar above two white wavy lines.
This coat of arms is apparently still used, but as far as I have
ntocied there is no flag to go with it. probably the design did
not pass thouh the Ministry of administration procedure, and I
doubt that such as it is it would. I estimate that it was
originally adopted in 1980's, and probably the original design
included a red five-pointed star or some other emblem of the
socialist society (probably instead of the church in the middle),
however, I found no sources to confirm that.
