Most beautiful medieval towns in Italy

This splendid town perched on the hills should not be missed if you’re passing through the area. We recommend a visit to Queen Cornaro’s castle, the cathedral and the civic museum, as well as a stop to taste the local wine and typical products.

Bassano is an elegant town, famous for its Alpini bridge, distilleries, grappa shops that provide tasting and the Poli Grappa museum. Allow some time to also visit the Hemingway museum, the Ceramics museum and the Great War museum.

This town in the province of Vicenza, at the foot of the Venetian Prealps, is famous for its magnificent Piazza degli Scacchi [Chess Square], where a re-enactment is staged every two years of the story of Lionora, the daughter of the Castellan of Marostica, and of Rinaldo d’Angarano and Vieri da Vallonara, who compete for her hand in marriage

The heart of the town is the Canova Museum, where you can learn about the works and history of the great Neoclassical sculptor, Antonio Canova, as well as the Temple of Canova (the parish church)

A walled Venetian town steeped in the atmosphere of the Belluno Dolomites, Feltre is ideal for a stroll in its characteristic historic centre, where you can also visit the Carlo Rizzarda Modern Art Gallery.
