As early as 1770, Empress Maria Theresa appointed Anton Janša, a native of Upper Carniola, to be the first instructor of beekeeping at the recently established school of beekeeping in Vienna, Austria.
1770. aastal määras valitseja Maria Theresia Kranjska kohaliku mehe Anton Janša esimeseks mesinduse õpetajaks hiljuti avatud Austria Viini mesinduskoolis.
