Imperial Istria in the Kvarner Bay (1/2) – Opatija
Opatija – the old Abbazia – has been a place of longing since the beginnings of Habsburg tourism. Roman, Byzantine, Venetian, Slavic and of course Kakan pasts are reflected here. The influence of the Habsburg Empire can be found on almost every corner: grand hotels, private villas, parks, all of this breathes old Austrian history. Countless famous personalities, doctors, musicians, high nobility and the imperial family have stayed here and have given the place a nostalgic touch that shines to this day.
Karl Hohenlohe follows in the footsteps of ancient Austrian magnificent buildings and their former inhabitants. A very personal look at Opatija’s glorious past, present and future.
