It’s been 100 years since the miner and botanist Albert Bois de Chesne (1871–1953), who was also a timber merchant, bought the estate in Trenta and established an alpine botanical garden, which he probably named after his late wife Juliana – or perhaps after the mighty Julian Alps. Thanks to the efforts of dedicated Slovenian naturalists, the garden has been preserved for future generations and has operated within the framework of the Slovenian Museum of Natural History since 1962.
To celebrate the 100th anniversary, in Juliana they prepared a varied programme, acces it here!
