September Tour
(Italy, Slovenia, Zagreb)

 

ribnica_2.jpg (33342 bytes)Slovenia, an interesting area with distinguished tradition. 

Ribnica is one of the oldest towns of Slovenia and has a rich history. A special place here is occupied by the local Ribnica woodenware and pottery, crafts which both have a distinguished and ancient tradition and which are closely connected to nature. The greatest resource of this whole area is its forests.  Every first Sunday in September there is the traditional and well attended Ribnica fair of woodenware and pottery, featuring the production and sale of local hand-crafted items. In recent times these activities have of course been increasingly taken over by the industrial processing of wood, represented chiefly by the furniture manufacturing plant of Inles, and by a number of smaller manufacturers which are rapidly adapting their wood products to the needs of today’s markets.   

Pinerolo, Italy, Population: about 35,000 inhabitants
EVENTS Pinerolo was the host city of the Curling events and Paralympic tournaments at the 2006 Winter Olympics.

Pinerolo has always had a great strategic importance; in fact it was a commercial centre which leads to France. When it became under the French in the 16th century, the king's best military architects changed Pinerolo into a stronghold. The Duomo, built in the 11th c., was reconstructed in the 15th century, but only remains, of the original Gothic building, the doorway and the campanile (1425, unfinished).
