The built-up area has very ancient origins, proved by several archaelogical finds. During the Roman period it was probably the seat of a military camp, which had to control the crossroad of some important ways.

CITRON VILLA (Villa dei cedri)

It is at the beginning of the built-up area. The permanent exposition of Veneto’s spumante wines is inside the villa.

MARCONI’S SQUARE

It represents the historical and commercial heart of the built-up area. The scenary is composed of houses and villas rooting in the slope lying behind and of the encircling mountains.

PROVOSTSHIP CHURCH

Period: Dedicated to Our Lady of the Assumption, rebuilt in the place of the original 1200’s church, it was consacrated in 1816. The original project is by B. Salomoni, but was later modified by Segusini and at last by Vicentini.

Works: In the Ionic-style pronaos, there is a beautiful portal with a bas-relief and several statues. Inside there is only one nave, with tapered corners and a vaulted ceiling. The presbytery is made higher thanks to an apsidal dome. There are several  frescoes and paintings. Among them, the altar piece, dedicated to Our Lady of Assumption, is worth admiring. The baroque altar is overlooked by a big   tabernacle and the statues of two angels. In the corner niche, there is the old baptistry with a big font with Gothic inscription and octagonal spire.

TOWN HALL PALACE

It was built to the south of the provostship church and is characterized by a long porch. Along the flight of steps you can read a war memorial plaque, work of S. Rossetto.

SAN FLORIANO’S CHURCH

The simple façade is overlooked by a dome over the transept and by the high bell tower. It is destination of pilgrimages. After a short, steep slope, you can arrive there and admire the panorama.

SAN GREGORIO’S THE GREAT ORATORY

It was built in 1482, but it now has an eighteenth-century structure. The façade, with a rose-window, is preceded by a flight of steps which leads to the churchyard surrounded by cypresses. Inside, there is a canvas by Brusasorci representing Our Lady of the Rosary.
