Lovran is a city with a long and rich past with a hundred-year tradition in tourism. It is named after laurel (laurus nobilis) which grows in abundance in evergreen groves in and around the town. Of the places that developed on the eastern steep slopes of Učka, Lovran is the oldest settlement that grew right along the coast of Liburnia. Lovran has preserved its historical core of medieval urban conception. The old town was surrounded by a defensive wall and bastions on whose foundations and walls houses were built over time.
The courtyards of the Old Town are the charm and specialty of Mediterranean urban architecture. Behind the stone portal, the facades of neighboring houses can be seen, decorated with steps, porches and shrines, and in the middle of the courtyard rises the stone neck of the cistern. Good climate, lush Mediterranean vegetation and favorable geographical position have enabled the strong development of tourism at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries.
Since that time, Lovran has been, along with Opatija, the most important place on the famous Riviera. Several villas built at that time are among the world's architectural heritage. In the 21st century, Lovran has a rich historical heritage, centuries-old tourist tradition, preserved nature, built infrastructure, and all this enables the resurgence of tourism with sustainable development and respect for all environmental standards.
