    Hiking

    In 1859, Archduke Maximilian (then Viceroy of Veneto) and his wife, Charlotte of Belgium, discovered the island. Enchanted by the location, Charlotte purchased it, and the imperial couple transformed the former monastery—then in ruins—into a summer residence. Following the botanical tradition of the Benedictines, Maximilian devoted much of his efforts to transforming the island into a veritable exotic garden, with specimens from Australia and South America.
