Trieste, Piazza della Stazione: horse-drawn tram, late 1800s

Historic photo with a panoramic view of Piazza della Stazione in Trieste, in the late 19th century. In the foreground a horse-drawn tram runs along today’s Viale Miramare, amid carriages and pedestrians. On the left stands the Meridionale building (1878), which replaced the 1858 structure. In the distance, hills frame the city.
