Gorizia

Gorizia, crossroads of cultures

Gorizia was called “Habsburg Nice” because of its always mild and gentle climate and of the beautiful parks that still represent one of its amenities.

Gorizia's story is that of a border city in which different cultural worlds (Friuli, Austrian, Slovenian cultures and an important Jewish element) have met and melted... leading to a fascinating cosmopolitan atmosphere that can be enjoyed while taking a stroll through streets and palaces.

Gorizia

Visiting Gorizia means to see with one's own eyes how centuries of history have evolved... from the massive Castle of the Counts of the city, dating back to the 12th century and surrounded by the district bearing the same name, to the wonderful Baroque churches and the Museum of the First World War, where we should stop and meditate... not to mention the many Cafés of mid-European origin where you can enjoy the pleasure of meeting other people and the scent of time going by...
