Brief history of Stanzia Cocci
Stanzia Cocci was built by Count Cocci around 1810. The estate was named after him.
The Count lost his property in a card game.
At this time, the ancestors of the current owners lived in central Istria. Matteo Zugan was an officer in the Austro-Hungarian army. With his brothers, he purchased the estate in 1872.
In 1899., Pietro Zugan built a new addition to the house – commemorated with an inscription in the front of the house.
Stanzia Cocci remains in the ownership of the Zugan family to this day.
