From 1283 to 1797 Rovinj (Rovigno in Italian) was one of the most important towns in Istria governed by the Republic of Venice.
After Venice's fall in 1797, Rovinj became part of the Austrian Empire until World War I; the 1911 Austrian census reported 97.8% of the population as Italian-speaking.
From 1918 to 1947, it was part of the Kingdom of Italy, then ceded to SFR Yugoslavia as part of SR Croatia. The town's original name, Rovigno, was changed to Rovinj and during the post-war period many Italians left, which led to significant changes to the city's demographic structure. (s)
