Parenzana Museum

Tucked into the old centre of Izola, this small museum tells the full story of the town — from its origins as a literal island to its fishing and canning industry heyday. You'll also discover the Parenzana, a narrow-gauge railway that once connected Trieste to Poreč through this region. It's the kind of local gem that gives a place real depth. Guided tours run in Slovenian and English for groups up to 40.
