Integrated program Tourism Valorisation of the Representative Monuments of Rijeka’s Industrial Heritage is concerned with renovation and putting into operation two representative monuments of Rijeka’s industrial heritage. These are motor vessel Galeb and the Sugar Refinery Palace, part of the former industrial block Rikard Benčić, both of which are protected monuments of culture of the Republic of Croatia. Essentially, the program focuses on a new cultural and touristic interpretation of the city’s history and its cultural heritage. It involves the creation of a new cultural and tourist route, as well as scientific, educational and promotional activities that promote the project and raise interest of the wider public in the cultural heritage.
Our approach to torpedo research is based on fascination with technical achievements and particular progress in Rijeka at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. Because of torpedo, Rijeka became known throughout the world.
Many technical innovations were introduced in the torpedo factory and many new instruments were invented and tested for the first time.
No less fascinating is the fact that that early acoustic and aerodynamics research was conducted in this factory and that the breaking of the sound barrier was proven here.
