Trieste and its Sea: Tour of the Historic Center

Discover the history of Trieste through its connection with the Adriatic Sea. The tour explores Trieste by visiting the squares and monuments that are fundamental to the city's history, always with an eye on the sea from which the city drew its fortunes. 

After walking along Passeggio S. Andrea, where the wealthy merchants of 19th-century Trieste loved to stroll, the tour explores the city's piers and docks, reaching the monument of Maximilian of Habsburg, the heart of Trieste, which is Piazza Unità, the commercial heart with the Tergesteo and Piazza della Borsa, then arriving at the Borgo Teresiano with the churches of the Greek and Serbian Orthodox minorities, the Grand Canal, and finally concluding with the statue of Ressel, where the piers give way to the warehouses.
