Maks Fabiani (Kobdilj 1865 – Gorica 1962) architect, town planner, inventor, professor, painter and philosopher was born in the village of Kobdilj.

A circular path has been named after him: Fabiani's Path – from Kobdilj to Štanjel.

The path consists of many different interconnected walking paths wich take you to buildings and locations associated with Maks Fabiani's life. A visit to the Ferrari garden and then on to upper Kobdilj takes at least one hour. If you wish to include lower Kobdilj or go trough the dry Karst valley where you will find an Austro-Hungarian military cemetery you will need at least an hour and a half. In lower Kobdilj you can also see the house where Anton Mahnic a later bishop of Krk was born.
