Tourist information center Ajdovščina - presentation

Ajdovščina, the green town in the Vipava Valley, may seem a sleepy, rural town at first glance. Safely huddled next to the slopes of the Gora Plateau, it is tucked away in a fertile valley and influenced by the mild Mediterranean climate. But looks can be deceiving. Almost as though the town had taken on the character of the torrential Hubelj River next to which it grew, Ajdovščina is a surprisingly dynamic, on occasion even impulsive town, brimming with creative drive.

In later times, a medieval settlement developed inside the Roman walls, with narrow alleys that one can still walk today. The old town centre is lined with 19th century bourgeois houses from the town's economic heyday.

The chequered industrial heritage enriched the town through sophisticated technical culture. Today, Ajdovščina has no large-scale industry, and the town is instead touted for innovative and groundbreaking companies. The town boasts a large population of experts from around the world, giving it a cosmopolitan flair.
