The medieval town of Labin is situated on the hill above Rabac. Its old name of Albona was first mentioned in 285 AD. The birthplace of Matthias Flacius Illyricus, the reformer and collaborator of Martin Luther, it is a cultural and administrative center today.
Labin, a picturesque town situated on a 320 meters high hill and only three kilometers from the seaside, was inhabited already two thousand years B.G. The remnants of Kunci, one of the settlements called the 'castellums', dating from the Bronze Age, can be found in the vicinity of Labin. Its old Illyrian-Celtic name is Albona or Alvona and it was probably founded by Celts in the 4th century B.C. on the ruins of the ancient city.
Titus Livius said that Labin inhabitants were pirates. After the conflicts between the local inhabitants and Romans, which had started in the 3rd century B.C., Istra came under the Romans in 177 B.C. The borderline was the river Rasa. Labin and its surroundings thus became an integral part of Illyrian, the Roman province with a high degree of independence and authority over the nearby settlements. The oldest written document about Labin is a relief from the 3rd century.

Hello Tsilla,

Very interesting and colourful architecture captured at an angle to allow us to enjoy the perspective and the features. Very good focus and details.
We cannot always have a perfect, blue sky and your does not detract from the enjoyment of the buildings.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hello Tsilla! Amazing house. Wonderful windows and shutters. Nice POV and capture. Good luck!

Bonjour Tsilla,

Quel contrast saisissant entre le mur de pierre et celui peint en jaune, leur seul point commun se sont, les volets verts, le tout restant très agréable à l'oeil!!!
AMitiés
Odile
