The arid treasure chest
The Karst is a rocky plateau, arid for the most part. Like a treasure chest, it encloses many natural wonders to discover.
The border
The Karst has always been a borderland, a strategic place. It was the gateway for entering the territories of the Italian plain. The Karst has been long contended and wounded by bloody conflicts. However, it has been also crossroad of languages, cultures, and people with Slavic, German, and Friulian roots, so deeply related to the Mittel European tradition.
Ashes in the wind
The red soil of Karst calls to mind the bloody battles fought in these places during the First World War, together with the mourning for the unknown remains of the thousands of fallen, here dispersed as ashes in the wind.
The Cassa di Risparmio di Gorizia Foundation, aware of its fundamental role in the growth of the Isonzo community, has launched the three-year program "Fondazione CariGO GREEN" together with Intesa Sanpaolo. This aims to enhance the local territory through innovative and sustainable interventions.
