MIRAMARE CASTLE.....http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miramare_Castle

 

Miramare castle is the famous residence of Maximilian of Habsburg and his consort, Charlotte of Belgium. The castle, which was built between 1856 and 1860 by Cari Junker, is faced with bright Istria stone. The interior contains numerous works of art, and clearly reflects the taste and habits of the Vienna Court. The archduke took great care on improving the castle, which is surrounded by a beautiful Park with secluded corners and rare exotic trees that render it absolutely unique. The Castle hosted Duke Amedeo of Aosta and in 1945 it became the headquarters of the Allies' military command. The hydrological and biological conditions of the stretch of sea surrounding the castle support an exceptional habitat. In fact, the area is populated by every species of sea organism existing in the Northern part of the Adriatic sea. For this reason, the Miramare Sea Park was created in 1973. The International Centre of Theoretical Physics is situated near the castle.
