Abstract

Between 1859 and 1867, when Lokrum island was the property of the Austrian Archduke and Emperor of Mexico, Maximilian of Habsburg, a walkway influenced by Spanish promenades known as alamedas, has been constructed in front of his residence. The research is based on the archived material and the authentic bills of quantities, signed by the court gardener Joseph Laube. The Lokrum walkway is Maximilian’s original concept.
