Editing Trieste (section)

===Places of interest===
* The Austrian Quarter: Half of the city was built during the [[Austria-Hungary|Austro-Hungarian]] period, giving the city some aspects of [[Vienna]]'s architectural characteristics. The majority of buildings were built in [[Neoclassical architecture|Neoclassical]], [[Art Nouveau]], [[Eclecticism in art#Western architecture|Eclectic]] and [[Liberty]] styles.
* Città Vecchia (Old City): Trieste has an extensive old city: there are many narrow and crooked streets with typical medieval houses. Almost all of the area is closed to traffic.
* [[Piazza Unità d'Italia]], Trieste's central majestic square surrounded by 19th century architecture, and the largest seafront square in Europe.
* [[Piazza Venezia, Trieste|Piazza Venezia]], with a view over the Adriatic. Since 2009, the monument to [[Maximilian I of Mexico|Archduke Maximilian]] has been located in Piazza Venezia again, looking over the Gulf of Trieste to the Miramare Castle, the subject wearing a Vice Admiral's uniform. The more than 8 metre high bronze monument, with the allegories of the four continents, is intended to honour Maximilian's philanthropy and his interest in science and art. It was sculpted by sculptor Johannes Schilling at the request of and under the direction of Baron [[Pasquale Revoltella]]. It was inaugurated in 1875 in the presence of Emperor Franz Joseph, later removed after 1918 and relocated to the Miramare Castle Park in 1961.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://trieste-di-ieri-e-di-oggi.it/2017/01/31/trieste-piazza-venezia-monumento-a-massimiliano-daustria-5/|title=Trieste – Piazza Venezia, Monumento a Massimiliano d'Austria – TRIESTE – DI IERI E DI OGGI|website=trieste-di-ieri-e-di-oggi.it}}</ref><ref>Marco Barone "La statua di Massimiliano d’Asburgo ed i simboli della massoneria" In: Bora, 16 April 2014.</ref> [[Museo Revoltella]] is located in Piazza Venezia in the style of the Italian Renaissance with its six allegorical statues of the Venetian Francesco Bosa on the roof balustrade.

* The Stazione Rogers (gas station "Aquila" designed by [[Ernesto Nathan Rogers]]) is considered an important building of Italian rationalism and post-war modernism and is now a multi-purpose centre for culture and architecture.<ref>[http://www.stazionerogers.org/content/ledificio Stazione Rogers - the building]</ref>
* Molo Sartorio, where still today the sea level for the Republic of Austria, a landlocked nation, is measured as "metres above the Adriatic".
