Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
World Heritage
Les Lombards en Italie. Lieux de pouvoir (568-774 après J.-C.)
In Cividale del Friuli and in several other Italian cities, the Lombard power sites preserve churches, monasteries and ensembles decorated between late Antiquity and the Middle Ages. Sculptures, stuccos and religious architectures show a culture that has involved Roman heritage, Byzantine influences and traditions from northern Europe.
Place
Udine
Udine It is very well read by its internal transitions: lively centre, quieter passages, historical areas. The rhythm of its streets makes urban matter appear over the day. Walking through the city without imposed itinerary offers a vision of its uses and strata.
Place
Cividale del Friuli
Cividale del Friuli Surprises by its passages over the Natisone, its stone alleys and the Lombard remains preserved in the center. The Ponte del Diavolo offers one of the most beautiful angles on the city, then churches, courtyards and small museums give a rich visit without losing the scale of a living village.
Place
Palmanova
Palmanova It imposes a clear geometry from the moment of arrival, and then reveals its complexity in the details of the course. The feeling of fortified city becomes tangible when you turn around the frame rather than stay on a single axis. One thus captures the role of the local perspectives and diagonals.
