Beginning of biometeorology in Abbazia/Opatija.

In addition to health facilities and many other organizations, there was also a functioning weather station in the health and seaside resort of Abbazia/Opatija, known as the Nice of the Austrian riviera. Formal observation of weather in Abbazia/Opatija began in 1886 with the setting up of the weather station in Angiolina Park. During the period 1898-1915, the warden of this station and data collector was the local doctor, dr Franz Tripold.
