The dragon has been the symbol of this city since ancient times. The legend behind it is that when Jason and his fellow Argonauts were fleeing after stealing the Golden Fleece from the Colchian king, they found a big lake surrounded by a marsh between present-day Vrhnika and Ljubljana. This marsh was the home of a fierce dragon, and Jason eventually fought and slew it. As a result, the dragon became a symbol of Ljubljana, which was the city that sprung up around the marsh. Even today, the symbol of the dragon can be seen in the Ljubljana coat of arms.
