IDEAS FOR VISIT

Battle of the Frigidus
The battle between the armies of Roman Emperor Theodosius and usurper Eugenius on 5 and 6 September 394 in the upper Vipava Valley the only event of global historical significance in the entire ancient history of the area. Speaking of its great importance is the large number of mentions in ancient and medieval literature. While a single record sheds light on most of events in military and political history, or by two to three at the most, one comes across a description or at least a mention of the Battle of the Frigidus in most historians of late antiquity who describe the era of Emperor Theodosius. Their descriptions serve as basis for presentations of this event by Byzantine and Western Medieval writers of chronicles and church histories. Despite the large number of reports, a reconstruction of the event that would critically take into account all ancient records on the one hand, and the geographical and strategic characteristics of the battle site on the other, is an exceptionally c

Gradišče pri Vipavi
Gradišče pri Vipavi is a beautiful Primorska village, situated below the steep slopes of the Nanoška Plateau in the upper Vipava Valley. Gradišče pri Vipavi is mentioned as a prehistoric settlement on the Zatrepo hill above the village as early as the Hallstatt period, a period of the older Iron Age, which lasted up to 300 years before Christ on Slovenian territory. The route to Gradišče is very simple; drive two kilometres from Vipava to the car park at the top of the village (240 m), from where the best starting point is for a trip to Gradiška Tura (761 m) and Plaz (529 m), either by the harder climbing route or the easier route. Past the church of St Nicholas, one of the many paths leads to Vojkova hut on Nanos (1240 m). In the precipitous cliffs of Gradiška Tura there is also a famous climbing area for free climbers (196 climbing routes).

Lože Castle
COBENZL MANSION The building complex is partially dug into the hill above the village, it is surrounded by vineyards at its foot, and the forest stretches behind it. It is said that an unfortified medieval palace, built by the Counts of Bogen, stood there as early as in the 12th century, and was home to Leitenburg ministeriales, after whom the place was named. At the beginning of the 13th century, the estate was inherited by the Counts of Andechs, and after 1228 it became the property of the patriarchs of Aquileia. In 1351 they left it to the Habsburgs, who in 1399 granted it to the Lords of Walsee. In 1472 the estate became the property of the provincial prince, and in the second half of the 16th century it was first leased, and then owned by the Cobenzl family. The current mansion was commissioned in 1675 by Janez Filip Cobenzl. There was also a chapel of the Passion of Jesus in the main building. After the extinction of the family in 1810, the estate was inherited by Count Michael

Church of St. Stephen in Vipava
The parish church of St. Stephen dates between 1460 and 1465. It is an exceptional type of building, as it features a rectangular nave and a long two-bay choir walled on five of eight sides, surrounded by five two-arched buttresses. Preserved from the original medieval church from around 1460-65 are the presbytery and parts of the nave walls. The church was built almost completely anew in 1556 (as stated on the side portals). An independent tower, visible in Valvasor's depiction of Vipava from 1679, was probably built at that time on its south-western side. It was modified into a bell tower in the 18th century and topped with an onion dome. What points to its defensive function in the 16th century is the sloping fortified base, similar to the defensive towers of the surrounding manor houses at the time. The church was extended to the west between 1679 and 1750, so now it touches bell tower; it was also renovated in the Baroque style at that time. The presbytery is fully covered in fr

Mlake Wetlands
The Mlake Wetlands are a natural monument stretching on approximately 100 hectares. It is located close to the Vipava–Podnanos regional road and the Selo–Razdrto expressway. Wetlands are transitional areas between water and land with high groundwater, and their significance is in that they maintain balance in nature. The Mlake Wetlands boast an exceptional diversity of animal and plant species, 14 of which are on the Red List of Threatened Species, protected by European conventions and guidelines. In this corner of Vipava Valley lies a true ecological treasure trove that elsewhere can be admired and studied only in rare parts of the world. The Mlake Wetlands are the last oasis in Vipava Valley for the plant and animal species that had been common in the area before land reclamation. Due to their diversity, the Mlake Wetlands are important for the preservation of both dry and wetland communities, and at the same time they are a refuge for many endangered animal and plant spe

Camp Vrhpolje

In 394, a battle between the Roman emperor Theodosius and the rebel Eugene is said to have taken place on the field against Duplje and Zemono.
