Province of Udine

The province extended from the Carnic Alps in the north to the Adriatic Sea in the south, covering 4,907 square kilometers of diverse terrain.

The region gained prominence under the Patriarchate of Aquileia in 983, later coming under Venetian control in 1420 until the French Napoleonic occupation.

The territory contains 135 municipalities, including significant centers like Cividale del Friuli, Gemona del Friuli, and San Daniele del Friuli with their distinct traditions.

This former administrative region was transformed into a Regional Decentralization Entity in 2019, maintaining Udine as its capital and administrative center.

The area features the Tagliamento River system, which flows from Alpine peaks through fertile lowlands, shaping local agriculture and settlement patterns.
