Sažetak

ror Joseph II from 1788, from Rijeka to Pula, while passing through
several towns and villages of the eastern coast of Istria. The original
document, that is, an anonymous report addressed to the Governor of the
Istrian city, has been preserved in the archives of the University Library in
Pula. It describes the journey of the Austro-Hungarian group and, in more
detail, their encounter with an anonymous intelligence officer of the then
prefect of the Istrian city, Angelo Maria Orio, who was also not named in
the report. This document, significant as a travelogue as well as in terms
of culture, also contains interesting historical and political information,
such as the hidden reasons why these famous characters sought as much
information as possible about Pula, its port and transport routes; their
interest in economic policy and defence of the Venetian Republic in this
area not even ten years before its fall. It also describes the political situation
in Istria and the state border situation at the time.
