The Tourist Board of the city of Pula wanted to start the event in 2020, but it was postponed due to the corona virus, so last year a storytelling called Mladić who wanted to dance the waltz was started. The upgrade this year is precisely the Living Image project of Austro-Hungarian Pula, said the director of TZ Pula Sanja Cinkopan Korotaj and mentioned that the Tourist Board of Pula finances the program, and it was created by Ivna Bevanda Strah and her colleagues.

Ivna Bevanda Strah points out that the program is primarily educational and culturally touristic, intended for all ages, and various experts, associations and her team participate in the program. 

Professor Igor Šaponja said a few sentences about the history of the Pula observatory, i.e. the hydrographic institute, he noted that "the observatory's program aims to awaken and affirm the forgotten stories of Pula's rich history" and, among other things, the lecture will be held by Korado Korlević and Damir Šegon, and the musical ensemble of Polan Samanta Stell's music will take guests back to the time of Austria-Hungary, as well as the fragrance called Polana (Polana is the name for an asteroid in the main asteroid belt, and was discovered by Johann Palisa on January 28, 01. ).

Various restaurateurs participate in the project with dishes and drinks that were served at that time. Cafes and restaurants throughout the city have prepared special offers of drinks and dishes inspired by this period, allowing those present to taste the spirit of the old times.
