130 years of tourism in Grado
25 June 2022
It was in 1892, and more precisely on 25 June 1892, that Emperor Franz Joseph passed the law laying down the "fundamental rules for the regulation of the health resort" and Grado was officially recognised as a health resort and bathing resort. Today we are celebrating 130 years of history linked to tourism on the Island of the Sun.
