Lovran, as an integral part of the Austrian Riviera, had a very important role in health tourism. Precisely because of this, but also because of the need to inform the population, references to Lovran and its surroundings regarding certain events can be found in old Slovenian newspapers on the territory of the presentday Slovenian regions. Historical newspapers, as a source of a large number of useful information, were used in this paper in order to answer the questions in what context and to which events was Lovran linked to. Texts from Slovenian historical newspapers Edinost, Slovenec, Slovenski narod and Soča were analyzed, and over 390 articles mention Lovran. These texts may be grouped according to the subject of reporting, and some newspaper articles are presented in more detail.
