Summer on Louisiana and Carolina

Summer on Louisiana and Carolina

Jun. 12 - Sep. 11, 2011

Ljeto na Lujzijani i Karolini - CroMapsOnce upon a time, important international routes went through Gorski kotar. In the early 18th century, the Carolina Road was built as an important route connecting Karlovac with the town of Bakar. However, the terrain it passed through was rugged, which prompted the construction of a new road at the beginning of the 19th century - this one being named Louisiana after Napoleon’s wife Mary Louise. At the time, Louisiana was one of the most modern roads in Europe, and it brought significant benefits to the population of Gorski kotar.

Today these two roads no longer hold their former significance, but the memory of their golden age is still preserved by this summer event. During these days, caravans of travelers dressed in keeping with the times travel up and down the Louisiana and Carolina, music can be heard from behind every corner, while the hosts take every opportunity to ply one with homemade food and pastries. Come and join the procession of princes and other nobility and their sumptuously decked coaches.
