It was named after the laurel (laurus nobilis) which grows abundantly in the evergreen groves in the town and its surroundings.Lovran is located on the eastern coast of Istria in the Kvarner Gulf. It is located at the foot of the greenest and most vegetated mountain on the Adriatic - Učka.It is 19 km from our largest port Rijeka, 14 km from the railway station in Matulji, and 80 km from the airport in Pula. It is surrounded by high mountains in the north and west (Učka 1396 m, Snježnik 1605 m, Risnjak 1528 m), and on the sea side by islands (Krk, Cres), and its position is exceptionally protected from the winds. In the winter months, the most common wind is the bora, which blows from the north and brings clear and cold weather. Jugo brings rain and high humidity, and in the summer months the mistral brings freshness from the open sea, mitigating the heat and humidity.Lovran has preserved its historical core of the medieval urban concept. The old town was surrounded by a defensive wall and bastions on the foundations and walls of which houses were built over time.The courtyards of the Old Town are the charm and specialty of Mediterranean urban architecture. Behind the stone portal, the facades of the neighboring houses can be seen, decorated with staircases, porches and skodas, and in the middle of the courtyard rises the stone mouth of the cistern.In the 21st century, Lovran has a rich historical heritage, a centuries-old tourist tradition, preserved nature, built infrastructure, all of which enables the resurgence of tourism with sustainable development and compliance with all ecological standards.The good climate, lush Mediterranean vegetation and favorable geographical position enabled the strong development of tourism at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. Since that time, Lovran has been, along with Opatija, the most important place on the famous Riviera. Several villas built at that time are included in the world architectural heritage.The climate is Mediterranean with continental elements. Average winter temperature. Ref: RE-U-31682
