Treviso, Medieval city center in Treviso, Italy.
Description
Treviso is a city in the province of Treviso in northeastern Italy, where the Sile and Botteniga rivers form a network of waterways. Canals cross streets and squares, giving the town center a structure of bridges and small streams that are visible in many places.
History
The settlement was founded as a Celtic community named Tarvisium and later grew into a Roman municipality. In 1339 the town joined the Republic of Venice, which shaped its further development until the end of the 18th century.
Culture
The cathedral preserves paintings by Titian and Pordenone, while many building facades display Renaissance frescoes. These murals depict religious and historical scenes and shape the appearance of the center.
Practical
The center lies a few minutes' walk from the main train station and contains many shops, markets and restaurants serving regional dishes. Many streets are laid out for pedestrians, making it easy to explore on foot and allowing for a calm visit.
Did you know?
Some houses in the old part are built so that water from the Botteniga flows through channels on the ground floor. This construction is part of the original structure and can still be seen today when walking along certain streets.
