Activity itinerary

Roman Theatre of Trieste (Pass by)
Begin your journey at the Roman Theatre of Trieste, built in the 1st century AD, where stone seats carved into the hillside still whisper of ancient performances. Long buried beneath the modern city, this restored site reclaims its place as a proud symbol of Trieste’s Roman origins.
Piazzetta Tor Cucherna
  • 15m
Next, pass the sturdy Cucherna Tower—a 15th-century remnant of the city's medieval defences. Though modest in form, its historic presence with intriguing historical stories about battles fought and victories won make it a fascinating stop for history lovers.
Giants' Stairway
  • 15m
Ascend the dramatic Giants' Stairway, a sweeping 17th-century Baroque marvel that links the city’s lower streets to San Giusto Hill. Lined with statues and crowned with panoramic views of Trieste’s rooftops and the glittering Adriatic Sea, this climb is as cinematic as it is symbolic. San Giusto Castle then rises into view, its towers commanding the hilltop skyline. Even from the outside, the 15th-century fortress speaks volumes of Trieste’s strategic past and offers breathtaking backdrops for photography enthusiasts.
Roman Forum
  • 15m
A short walk reveals the scattered stones of the Roman Forum, dating back to the 1st century BC—once the bustling civic and commercial heart of ancient Trieste. Picture merchants peddling wares and citizens debating in public squares as you walk by these historic remains.
Cattedrale di San Giusto Martire
  • 15m
Glance up at the Cathedral of Saint Justus, a beacon of spiritual devotion built atop a Roman temple site. With its blend of Romanesque and Byzantine elements, the cathedral’s mosaic-adorned walls and solemn façade capture centuries of religious and artistic heritage.
Arco di Riccardo
  • 15m
Stroll beneath the ancient Richard’s Arch, constructed in 33 BC during the reign of Emperor Augustus. Named after Richard the Lionheart (Richard I of England) by local legend, this Roman gate offers a rare chance to walk through over two millennia of history.
Unity of Italy Square
  • 15m
Arrive at the Square of Italian Unity, the grand heart of modern Trieste. Framed by majestic 19th-century palaces and open to the Adriatic, this vast piazza celebrates national pride and local vibrancy—a perfect spot for people-watching or catching a sea breeze under an open sky.
Palazzo Aedes - Palazzo Berlam - Grattacielo Rosso
  • 15m
Conclude your walk with a final stroll along Via della Cassa di Risparmio, blending historic charm with modern vibrancy. Pass by an array of noble buildings like Aedes Palace and the grand Old Stock Exchange Palace before treating yourself to a break at Tommaseo Café - the city’s oldest café founded in 1830 - along with a variety of other charming cafés and restaurants, where you can relax, unwind, and savour the flavour of Trieste’s rich café culture.
