Spilimbergo is a charming medieval village nestled on the right bank of the Tagliamento river, in Friuli-Venezia Giulia. Internationally known as the "City of Mosaic", it preserves a prestigious artistic tradition that lives and is passed down in its famous Scuola Mosaicisti del Friuli, a world reference point founded in 1922. Strolling through the historic center, you breathe an atmosphere of yesteryear, amidst elegant frescoed palaces, ancient towers, and the suggestive Castle, embellished by the colorful Palazzo Dipinto. The Cathedral of Santa Maria Maggiore, a Gothic masterpiece, houses precious 14th-century fresco cycles. Spilimbergo wonderfully blends the solidity of Friulian culture with the refinement of art, offering a perfect combination of excellent craftsmanship, history, and a welcoming enogastronomic tradition.
