The author delivers a general history of the Abbey of St James, from its beginnings in the Middle Ages up to contemporary times. Based on the information from the relevant historiographical ...literature, the author emphasizes discussion about the time and reasons when Benedictines have left the Abbey, as well as the importance of Augustinians in the period between the mid-sixteenth and mid-eighteenth centuries. Analysis of the relevant literature and archival unpublished sources enabled the author to propose answers to some up-to-now unanswered questions regarding the history of the Abbey after which is named Town of Opatija. From the eighteenth century, this Abbey was organizationally subjected to the Jesuit College in Rijeka, and later to the archdeacon of Collegiate Chapter at Rijeka. After the Diocese of Rijeka was founded the title of the abbot of St James became a part of the title of the Bishop of Rijeka.

Evherijevo drugo najslovitejše delo je pismo De laude eremi. Gre za hvalnico otoškemu samostanu Lérins v Ligurskem morju pri Cannesu, na katerem ima okoli leta 400 ustanovljena meniška skupnost ...skoraj neprekinjeno tradicijo vse do današnjega dne. Na ta meniški locus amoenus se Evherij v De laude ozira skozi prizmo alegorizirajoče hvalnice puščavi kot edinemu pravemu kraju za meniha, asketa in slehernika, ki se želi približati bogu.
Zdravlje časnika (kao i cijele vojske) izloženo je dodatnim rizicima zbog izvršavanja različitih za život opasnih zadaća i to za potrebe države. Stoga nije neobično da država vodi brigu o zdravlju ...svojih časnika (kao i vojske) kroz sustav vojnomedicinske skrbi ili specijaliziranih društava koji pružaju medicinske/zdravstvene usluga u vojnim, odnosno časničkim lječilištima Militärkurhaus / Offizierskurhaus. Predmet ovog rada je međuodnos arhitekture i pružanja vojnomedicinskih usluga časničkih/ vojnih lječilišta koje je izgradilo Društvo Bijeli križ Gesellschaft vom Weißen Kreuze na Kvarneru krajem 19. i početkom 20. stoljeća. Istraživanje se temelji na podacima prikupljenim iz austrijskih arhitektonskih, medicinskih i turističkih časopisa te godišnjaka austrijskog Društva Bijeli križ. Rezultati istraživanja pridonose boljem poznavanju unapređenja zdravlja časnika, razvoju arhitekture lječilišnih zgrada Kurhaus te cjelokupnoj povijesti medicine i lječilišnog turizma na prostoru hrvatskog Jadrana.
The health of officers (as well as the entire army) is exposed to additional risks due to the performance of various life-threatening tasks for the needs of the state. Therefore, it is not unusual for the state to take care of the health of its officers (as well as the army) through a system of Vojvodina medical care or specialised society through the construction of military or officer health resorts Militärkurhaus / Offizierskurhaus with the provision of medical/ health services. The subject of this paper is the relationship between architecture and the provision of military-medical services of officer/military health resorts built by the Society of the White Cross Gesellschaft vom Weißen Kreuze in Kvarner at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. The research is based on data collected from Austrian architectural, medical and tourist magazines and yearbooks of Austrian Society of the White Cross. The results of the research contribute to a better understanding of the improvement of the health of officers, the development of the architecture of health buildings Kurhaus and the entire history of medicine and health tourism in the Croatian Adriatic.
This study attempts to identify an autoregressive distributed lag model (ADLM) as the data generating process of tourism demand in Opatija approximated by tourist nights. Empirical finding yield to ...the conclusion that the final model passes all the diagnostic checking and that model fits the data reasonably well throughout the sample period. Quantitative researches of tourism demand and accurate forecasts generating should be at the basis of efficient and effective planning and decision-making. Tourism demand modelling and forecasting, as many studies and researches demonstrated, is a relevant issue that can be helpful to all the stakeholders involved in the tourism and hotel industry. The accurate and timely forecast can anticipate future trends and allow to plan, organise and structure tourism capacities and supply more efficiently.
Kvaliteta i inovacija turističkog proizvoda postaju odlučujućim čimbenicima u konkurentskoj utakmici na turističkom tržištu. U takvim uvjetima destinacijski menadžment dobiva veliku šansu, ali i ...odgovornost za poslovanje turističke organizacije čiji se rezultati ogledaju u razvoju i unaprjeđenju turističke destinacije. U različitoj recentnoj literaturi nije definiran idealan model upravljanja turističkom destinacijom, ali sagledavanjem njezine kompleksnosti, a osobito njezinih podsustava i stupnja njezine turističke razvijenosti mogu se primijeniti različiti modeli upravljanja. Grad Opatija kao renomirana turistička destinacija je dostigla stupanj gdje joj je potreban zaokret u smislu upravljanja jer će na njen turizma u
budućnosti utjecati mnogo čimbenika, ali najvažniji će biti tehnologija i suvremeni zahtjevi potražnje, odnosno turista. U kontekstu budućega upravljanja Opatijom kao destinacijom, trebalo bi se usmjeriti na ustrojavanje DMO-a Grada Opatije.
U povijesti hrvatskoga planinarstva djelovanje Planinarskoga društva „Orljak“ iz Opatije (dalje: Društvo) slabo je poznato, no njegov četvrtstoljetni rad i zapažene aktivnosti na području Liburnije ...ukazuju na opravdanost dokumentiranja te važne epizode lokalne, regionalne, pa i nacionalne planinarske povjesnice. U ovome se članku stoga istražuje rad i djelovanje Društva od njegovih pretpočetaka u obliku Planinarskoga aktiva „Orljak“, koji djeluje u okviru Planinarskoga društva „Opatija“ (od 1980.), preko osnivanja samostalnoga Društva (1984.) te razdoblja rasta i intenzivna rada 1980-ih, postupna zamiranja 1990-ih i naposljetku nekoliko zabilježenih bljeskova značajnijih aktivnosti u početnome desetljeću 21. stoljeća. Rad se temelji na temeljitoj analizi dosad neobjavljenih arhivskih izvora iz nekoliko različitih fondova, a ti su podaci dopunjeni intervjuima s pojedincima koji su u određenome razdoblju bili aktivni članovi Društva te sekundarnom literaturom. Riječ je o dosad slabo poznatim podacima, čak i unutar planinarskih krugova, stoga se ovim istraživanjem nastoji ne samo spasiti od zaborava djelovanje jedne planinarske udruge nego i adekvatno valorizirati njezin rad kao trajno naslijeđe lokalne, regionalne i nacionalne (planinarske) povijesti.
Abstract Background/Purpose Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, interest in studying crisis influences grew in the last three years since it significantly impacted tourism and hospitality. Observing ...adaptations and transformations in hotel business models is necessary for tourism and hospitality firms to remain successful and competitive. The purpose of this qualitative case study is to critically analyse crisis management processes and management decisions regarding changes and adaptations in strategies and business model innovations to facilitate recovery, resilience, and sustained growth of hotels in the Croatian micro-region Opatija Riviera in Covid-19 and post-Covid-19 period. Method Semi-structured interviews were conducted with hotel managers and tourism and hospitality consultants. The transcriptions were checked, and collected data was interpreted based on the narrative analysis. Thematic content analysis (TCA) was applied in the study. Results Hotels in Opatija Riviera adapt their crisis business models to ensure long-term and sustainable growth and development of hotels and the destination itself. The primary focus is increasing the quality of services and guest satisfaction, achieving competitiveness in the tourist market. Conclusion The paper includes an exploratory qualitative research study on the impact and consequences of Covid-19 on business and organisational changes in the hotel industry in the Opatija Riviera area, which will have a medium- and long-term impact on the design of resilience and sustainable growth policies. The disruption caused by the pandemic is also important for hotel managers and management from the point of view of introducing crisis management processes, the results of which can be seen in the protection of the well-being of guests, employees and the general reputation of hotels. Therefore, hotel management needs to emphasise the importance of identifying business strategies and practices in business strategies and thus form the basis for effective crisis management.

Using the purposive sampling technique, data collection was carried out ...from January to August 2019 in the destinations of Opatija Riviera, yielding a sample of 155 valid responses. To gain better understanding of underlying dimensions of perceived quality of maritime tourist destination´s offer, we, primarily, use exploratory factor analysis. The research findings have revealed that organization of a destination, gastronomic offer, natural resources, traffic infrastructure, destination´s cultural resources, accommodation capacities, attractions and sports activities are the main factors of perceived quality of maritime tourist destination´s offer.
Prisutnost benediktinaca i benediktinki u gradu Rijeci i okolici do sada je samo u manjoj mjeri bila predmetom interesa historiografije. Nije istražena povijest benediktinki iz samostana sv. Roka u ...Rijeci, prisutnih od sredine 17. do sredine 20. st., prvih redovnica u gradu. Red sv. Benedikta dao je ime gradu Opatiji jer se redovnici vezuju uz tamošnju srednjovjekovnu opatiju sv. Jakova. Početkom 20. st. ondje benediktinci olivetanci grade novu crkvu i samostan. Nastanak biskupijskih struktura Rijeke u vremenu talijanske uprave između dvaju svjetskih ratova vezan je uz benediktinca i prvog biskupa Isidora Saina.
The presence of Benedictine monks and nuns in the city of Rijeka and its surroundings has so far only been the subject of historiography's interest to a lesser extent. The Benedictine nuns of St. Roko were present in Rijeka from the middle of the 17th to the middle of the 20th century, when they left for Italy, where they live to this day in the abbey of St. Daniel in Abano. The abbey of St. Jakov is the predecessor of today's City of Opatija, to which it gave its name. While the time of the arrival of the Benedictines in the Middle Ages still remains unknown to us, archival sources confirm that the Ottoman incursions in the first half of the 16th century were the reason for the abandonment of the abbey. The Benedictines of the Olivetan congregation came to Opatija in the years before the First World War, to build a church and a monastery by the beginning of the thirties. The presence of the Benedictines in Opatija ends in the middle of the 20th century, when the monks retire to Tkon. The establishment of the independent Diocese of Rijeka after the First World War is closely related to the person of Isidoro Sain, a Benedictine monk from Novigrad in Istria and abbot of Praglia. The episcopate of Isidoro Sain left an indelible mark on pastoral life and the construction of new diocesan structures in the years marked by Italian fascism.
