[[Ajdovščina Municipality]] covers a total area of 245 square kilometres and has a population of 17,798 people (2002) living in 45 settlements. Ajdovščina City has 6,000 inhabitants. Located in the Vipava valley, its origins may be traced back to the fortified settlement Castrum ad Fluvium Frigidum, situated on the road from Italy to Pannonia and the Balkans. The fortress was destroyed by Attila the Hun in the mid 5th century, however a wall with the 14 towers is quite well preserved. In 1507 the town was given trading rights. | [[Ajdovščina Municipality]] covers a total area of 245 square kilometres and has a population of 17,798 people (2002) living in 45 settlements.
