Cividale del Friuli World Heritage Site
Julius Caesar founded the city around 50 BC and named it Forum Iulii. As a capital of the first Lombard duchy in Italy, Cividale was dominated by the Romans, the Franks, the Patriarchate of Aquileia and the Republic of Venice.
Walking along the beautiful squares and narrow cobbled streets, you'll see picturesque medieval houses and old workshops, including the blacksmith’s, which you can enter and visit.
The city's main cultural jewels include the Lombard Temple, the best known expression of the architecture and art of the Lombards in Italy; the Altar of Ratchis, and the Baptistry of Callisto are exceptional testimonies of Langobardian art, visible in the precious Christian Museum and the Duomo Treasury. These artistic treasures led the Gastaldaga and the Episcopal complex to be included in the Longobards in Italy UNESCO World Heritage Site inscription in 2011.
Visit the National Archaeological Museum, a shrine of art and history, and discover what secrets and mysteries lie beneath your feet in the Celtic Hypogeum, a complex of artificial caves carved from rock, the original function of which is still unknown.
Stroll across the Devil’s Bridge, the symbol of the town, dating back to the mid fifteenth century, where you can enjoy a breathtaking panoramic view of the town.
Even without these historical treasures, Cividale is worth a visit to see its most recent display: CIPS is a centre devoted to marionettes by Vittorio Podrecca, the greatest italian artisti of marionette theatre. Find the time to drop in this exhibition space, the only one of its kind in Europe.
