TLT

This map shows the borders of the Free Territory of Trieste and was published by the Viseglia Geographic Institute of Rome in 1953, following the increasing request from Italian public opinion for information on the institution of the Free Territory of Trieste, which is a thin coastal zone outreaching from Duino up to Quieto River close to Cittanova in Istria. Officially the Free Territory of Trieste, established on the 16th September 1947, had a Governor jointly appointed by Italy and Yugoslavia, while the United Nation Security Council granted its territorial integrity and its independence; an agreement on the Governor appointment was never found and the Territory was, until 1954, divided in two parts: Zone A (with Trieste), under the temporary administration of the Allied Military Government, and Zone B under the administration of the Yugoslavian Military Government. The border between the two zones was established along the southern part of the "Morgan Line", slightly south of Muggia.

Madonna of Health

The day dedicated to the Madonna of Health, 21 November, is associated with the heavy epidemic of cholera that hit Trieste and the Veneto region in 1849. Every effort was made by the health authorities to stop the spread of the disease that was already killing hundreds of victims, but to no avail. In that tragic period. the faith of the people of Trieste looked to the intercession of the Virgin, obtaining her help: the cholera stopped in the first days of November of the same year.

On 21 november 1849, after a high pontifical mass celebrated by Bishop Bartolomeo Legat, there was a huge procession, expressing the whole city's thanks to the Madonna.

Tergesteo

The restoration of the Palazzo Tergesteo has been completed for a few months now, but very few shops are open, and very few passersby venture down the still bare and unadorned gallery. There's a feeling of crisis around here.
