Trieste (ItalianTrieste, Slovenian/CroatianComfort) is a city in Italy. It is the capital of the region Friuli Venezia Giulia. The flourishing port city belonged to the Austrian Habsburg monarchy for centuries. This is reflected in the typical Austro-Hungarian architecture and a rich cultural heritage at the intersection of the Mediterranean, Italian and Slavic (Slovenian / Croatian) as well as the German-Austrian cultural area.

history

Trieste belonged to the Austrian Empire until 1918 and was its most important port. Among other things, the Austrian Navy was stationed here. Within the Habsburg Monarchy, Trieste had the status of an imperial city. At that time the city was strongly multicultural: Italians, Slovenes and Germans lived here; Christians and Jews. The official language was German, most of the city's residents spoke Italian, and Slovenian in the suburbs and the surrounding area. The cityscape is still characterized by magnificent buildings in the Austro-Hungarian style, similar to those on the Vienna Ringstrasse. Trieste was a very prosperous city: in 1906 the average per capita income here was six times higher than in Vienna. Trieste was also considered one of the most important literary cities in Central Europe; among other things lived James Joyce here from 1905 to 1915.

Former border crossing between Italy and the Free Territory of Trieste

After the First World War, Trieste came along with his istrian Hinterland to Italy. At the end of the Second World War, the city was occupied by Yugoslav partisans. From 1947 to 1954 this formed Free territory of Trieste (including today's Slovenian cities Twill and Piran belonged) under the supervision of the Allies an autonomous state with its own currency, banks, postal system, postage stamps, license plates, state symbols and parliament. In view of the beginning of the Cold War, however, conflicts broke out between the protecting powers - communist Yugoslavia on the one hand, the Western Allies USA and Great Britain on the other - and the various ethnic groups (Italians, Slovenes and Croats). Eventually the territory was divided up and given partly to Italy and partly to Yugoslavia. Since then, Trieste has formed an Italian tip, which is only connected to the heartland by a narrow strip of land, while the southern and eastern environs already belong to Slovenia (from the city center to the border it is only about 10 km).

As a result of this changeable history between different states and nationalities, the director describes Giuseppe Tornatore Trieste as “the most un-Italian of all Italian or the most Italian of all non-Italian cities” (“la più straniera delle citta italiane, e la più italiana delle citta straniere”). Tornatores films are also playing in Trieste The unknown (2006) and The Best Offer - The highest bid (2013).

Trieste and the coffee

Old advertising board for coffee from Trieste

Trieste can rightly call itself Italy's coffee capital. Most of the green coffee imported into Italy is unloaded in Trieste: 2.5 million sacks per year. The Trieste also drink almost twice as much coffee on average as in the rest of the country. Hermann Hausbrandt, a former Austrian naval officer, founded his in 1892 coffee roastery of the same namewho was one of the first to develop the typical espresso roast. The company still exists today, but is no longer owned by the Hausbrandt family, but was taken over by Segafredo Zanetti and no longer roasts in Trieste. Since it was founded in 1933 until today, however, the family-run coffee company has continued to run Illy its seat in Trieste. The founder Francesco Illy (actually Illy Ferenc) came from by the way Timisoara and had a Hungarian father and a German mother. He developed the preservation of roasted coffee in oxygen-free tin cans as well as the Illeta, Forerunner of all espresso machines commonly used today. To this day, Trieste has a unique coffee house culture. Cafés are not only used for the consumption of hot drinks, but are also important social meeting places. A large part of public life takes place here.

In Trieste there are also special terms for ordering coffee: An espresso is called here nero ("Black"), capo is an espresso with a dash of milk, deca (short for decaffeinato) means decaffeinated. If you want to have the coffee served in a glass, you add in bí (of bicchiere= "Glass"). These terms can also be combined with each other: Capo deca in bí is a decaffeinated espresso with a dash of milk in the glass. Behind goccia (literally "drops") is an espresso with a dollop of milk foam. A caffèlatte corresponds roughly to a cappuccino (and not a coffee with a lot of milk as in the rest of Italy). This special "coffee language" is only valid in Trieste, 30 km away Monfalcone is understood by nero a red wine!

In the street

Castello di Miramare

The classic road approach leads, of course, via Triester Straße, which in Vienna is on Matzleinsdorfer Platz starts and over Semmering, Graz and Laibach leads directly to Trieste. During the monarchy it connected the royal seat with the most important port of the empire. But the Triester Straße has lost its traffic significance today and lives on mainly as the street name of the villages it traversed.

  • From eastern Austria or northern Slovenia, the best route today is via Graz and Ljubljana, then via the Slovenian A1 to Divača, where you change to the A3. You either leave the Slovenian A3 in Sežana, cross the border to Italy in Fernetti and follow the old Triester Reichsstraße, which is called "Strada per Vienna" in Italy, via Opicina. Shortly after Opicina, turn right onto Via Bonomea and follow it to the end in the Gretta district; about three kilometers north of the old town. Alternatively, you can cross the border on the motorway, then follow the motorway bypass ri. Koper and curves around the entire city in the south until you come out on the Uferschnellstraße, which leads directly to the city center or the old port.
  • From central and western Austria as well as the rest of the German-speaking countries, the best way to get there is via the Italian A4, which can be reached either via Villach-Udine or via Brenner-Verona.
  • From Istria you drive to Trieste via Koper. On this route you have to note that you also need a motorway vignette for the short distance through Slovenia. Toll-free journeys to Trieste are possible, but difficult to find due to the lack of good signage. A good option is to drive from Umag at the northern end of the Istrian Ypsilon on the Slovenian national road 11 to Koper, where you do not enter the expressway but turn right at the first roundabout after the motorway exit onto Ankaranska Cesta. Follow this past the harbor to the end. Turn left onto regional road 406. Continue straight on via Ankaran and across the border at Lazzaretto and reach Trieste via the SP 406.
  • From Rijeka follow the A7 to the Rupa exit, drive straight on over the D8 and the Slovenian national road 7 to the border at Pesek and reach Trieste via the SS 14. Toll-free in Slovenia.

The starting point is at 2 Piazza Guglielmo Oberdan. Note: Operations are currently suspended due to an accident and damage to the track system. A date for the restart has not yet been set (Dec. 2019).
