More Info
The village of Valvasone retains intact its medieval appearance consisting of pretty alleys and old mansions equipped with arcades.
The imposing castle, which dominates the square of the same name, houses late Gothic and Renaissance frescoes and a valuable wooden theater from the 1700s.
The Cathedral of the Most Holy Body of Christ, which owes its name to the relic of the miracle of the Sacred Tablecloth preserved in it, houses a monumental organ, the only example in Italy of 16th-century Venetian organ-making art, embellished by the stupendous artistic setting of Pordenone and Pomponio Amalteo.
The Church of Ss. Peter, Paul and Anthony Abbot, once a hospice that gave shelter to pilgrims and wayfarers, preserves valuable 16th-century frescoes and a 17th-century portative organ. Also fascinating is the cloister of the former Servite Convent, built in the 15th century and now partly rebuilt on the ancient foundations.
September sees “Medieval Valvasone,” with a medieval craftsmen’s market, armed brolo, medieval candlelight dinner, and lots of other events, happenings, and animations.
