Džbánov is a municipality and village in Ústí nad Orlicí District in the Pardubice Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 400 inhabitants.

==Etymology== The similarity with the Czech word džbán (i.e. 'jug') is only coincidental. The name of the village probably originates in the personal name Čban that belonged to one of the first reeves or settlers. Later the village was called Čbánov and then Džbánov.
