  Gorizia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gorizia (Slovenian: Gorica, German: Görz, Friulian: Gurize) is a small town at the foot of the Alps, in northeastern Italy, on the border with Slovenia.
In 1861, Gorizia along with Gradisca d'Isonzo was reorganized as the Princely County of Gorizia and Gradisca within Austria.
Gorizia was seriously damaged and changed hands again in 1916 as the front line ran in its area for two years with several battles fought nearby until the Central Powers pushed the Italians back to the Piave River in late 1917.

 ..:: Amministrazione provinciale di Gorizia ::..
L’attuale stemma della Provincia di Gorizia trae la sua diretta origine da quello della famiglia dei Conti di Lurn e Pusteria, i quali dal secolo XVI furono Signori feudali della nostra regione e Avvocati della Chiesa di Aquileia.
Va sottolineato, però, che nel 1647 il territorio di Gradisca, separato da quello di Gorizia ed elevato da Ferdinando III a Contea Principesca, venne dallo stesso venduto ai Principi di Eggenberg e per la durata di tale separazione Gradisca adottò il proprio stemma: una croce sovrastante una mezzaluna.
Estinti gli Eggenberg, Gradisca venne riunita a Gorizia nel 1754, ma ciò non impedì di continuare ad adottare separatamente i due stemmi: quello di Gorizia (leone rampante e fasce rosso-argento) e quello di Gradisca (croce e mezzaluna).
