Dobrich, also known by the Romanian name Bazargic and the Turkish name Hacıoğlu Pazarcık, is a city in Bulgaria, and the administrative center of Dobrich Province and the capital of the region of Southern Dobrudzha. The city is named after the 14th-century Dobrujan ruler Dobrotitsa, from the Slavic root dobr, which means good. The first evidence of settlement in what is now Dobrich dates from the 4th or 3rd century BC. Under the Latin name Abrittum, it was a city of the Roman province of Moesia Inferior, important enough to become a suffragan bishopric of the Metropolitan of the capital, Marcianopolis, but the Catholic diocese faded later.

Several of the landmarks of Dobrich include the Church of Saint George, the Holy Trinity Church, and the Armenian Church of Saint Hovhaness. The city is also home to several museums, including the Ethnographic House, the Yordan Yovkov House Memorial, the Museum of Military Cemetery, and the Dobrich Art Gallery. The City Park Saint George, or the city garden as known among the people of Dobrich, is the most visited place in Dobrich by its citizens and guests.
