History
The neoclassical villa where Croatian tourism was born in 1844, when a Rijeka merchant built it as an aristocratic seaside retreat. The garden is planted with camellias, magnolias and sequoias from four continents.
“A visit by the Austrian empress in 1860 kick-started the transformation of Opatija into the Adriatic's first grand-hotel resort.”
