Geocache Description:

Lets find a linden three. Her roots are covered by stones. Under the stones lays the cache.

Šempeter pri Gorici is located right at the border between Italy and Slovenia. Linden trees adorn its main square, which first blossom in the Goriška Region. 
In the heart of town, there is St.  Peter’s Church, which was first built in the 15th century and in 1589, a register of christenings was started there.  During the First World War, the Church was almost entirely destroyed. After the War, St. Peter’s Parish Church was rebuilt in Neo-Romanesque style according to the plans of the renowned architect and town-planning professional Max Fabiani (1865-1962), who was a contemporary of Plečnik. The Church was solemnly consecrated on 17 November 1929. Some magnified photos from this period, which depict the Church and the square, are on display in the atrium of the Lipa Hotel. 
The town centre is also adorned by the Coronini Mansion, which is located to the left behind the Church.  The Coronini Mansion is an example of eclectic architecture, which dates back to the first half of the 20th century.  It was designed based on architectural heritage and represents a good example of an aristocratic residence, which as the heart of the estate served for both residential and administrative purposes and preserved a continuity of style from the second half of the 19th century.  It is designed following the model of Austrian classicist manors, with its floor plan in the shape of a horseshoe, which embraces the front yard and features a portico in front of the entrance.
The last renovation of the town square with stone setting was concluded in the summer of 2011.

The puzzle:
Somewhere nearby you can see written records of the song Lipa zelenela je…
Where and how is the song written?

Šempeter pri Gorici se nahaja tik ob Italijansko slovenski meji. Podobo glavnega trga krasijo lipe, za katere je značilno, da so prve, ki spomladi zacvetijo na Goriškem.
V samem centru mesta se nahaja cerkev Sv. Petra, ki je bila prvič zgrajena v 15. stoletju, leta 1589 pa naj bi tu začeli pisati krstno knjigo. Cerkev je bila med prvo svetovno vojno skoraj v celoti porušena. Po prvi svetovni vojni so po načrtih uglednega arhitekta in urbanista, Plečnikovega sodobnika, Maksa Fabianija (1865–1962) na novo sezidali župnijsko cerkev sv. Petra v neoromanskem slogu, ki jo je Frančišek Borgia Sedej slavnostno posvetil 17. novembra 1929. Nekaj povečanih fotografij cerkve in trga iz tega obdobja si je mogoče ogledati v atriju hotela Lipa.
Mestno središče krasi tudi Coroninijeva graščina, ki se nahaja za cerkvijo na levi strani. Coroninijeva vila je eklekticistična arhitektura, ki je nastala v prvi polovici 20. stoletja. Oblikovali so jo na bazi stilnih izročil in predstavlja kvaliteten primer plemiške rezidence, ki je kot središče posesti združevala stanovanjsko in upravno funkcijo ter ohranila stilno kontinuiteto stavbe iz druge polovice 19. stoletja. Zasnovana je po vzoru avstrijskih klasicističnih dvorcev s tlorisom v obliki podkve, ki oklepa prednje dvorišče in s portikom pred vhodom.
Zadnja prenova mestnega trga s tlakovanjem se je zaključila poleti 2011.
