Malo šarmantno mjesto Brtonigla se nalazi u sjeverozapadnom dijelu Istre između Buja i grada Novigrada, blizu granice sa Slovenijom. Brtonigla se prvi put spominje davne 1234. godine, s drevnim imenom Ortoneglo ili Hortus Niger, tj. Crni mljeveni vrt. U 11. stoljeću na to su se područje naselili Mlečani, a tek u 16. i 17. Stoljeću nastanjuju se dalmatinske obitelji. Nakon prvog svjetskog rata selo je prisvojeno talijanskom području te takvo ostaje sve do drugog svjetskog rata kada ga je većina talijana ipak napustila. Brtonigla tako, od 1991. Godine postaje dijelom Istarske županije u Republici Hrvatskoj. Šetajući po ovom prekrasnom gradu naići ćete na Crkvu San Zenone - župnu crkvu koja je posvećena svetom Zenoneu, biskupu iz Verone i sadašnjem zaštitniku grada.Brtonigla je danas poznata po vrhunskim vinarima, maslinarima i odličnoj gastronomskoj ponudi jer se ovdje može probati meso boškarina (autohtona istrarska sorta goveda), šumske šparoge i gljive iz obližnje šume i drugi specijaliteti koje nećete naći na jelovnicima obalnih gradova.

Beautiful town and to top it the fame on the wine and olive making highlights the best things about the place. We visited the farms and saw the processing of the wine and also for the olive oil. It was magnificent and we also had the chance for wine tasting and olive oil sampling.

I needed to unwind and relax after a long working period. I came to this peaceful place and loved It. The countryside was cool with lots of fresh air. I enjoyed long walks into the woods to relax my mind. I watch the sunset in the comfort of my hotel balcony. It was great being here.

I had an unforgettable experience in Brtonigla as we enjoyed paragliding with stunning views of the Adriatic sea. The thrill is worth doing again.
