Latisana, Administrative commune in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy

The town of Latisana sits at the intersection of the Tagliamento River and the Adriatic Sea, forming a central point for regional commerce and transportation.

Originally established as Mansio Apicilia during Roman times, Latisana served as a strategic post station along the Via Annia connecting Concordia to Aquileia.

The Cathedral of Latisana houses significant artworks, including Paolo Veronese's Baptism of Jesus canvas and Andrea Fosco's wooden Crucifix from the 17th century.

The Latisana-Lignano-Bibione railway station connects travelers to major cities, while the town's location provides access to nearby Adriatic coastal destinations.

The town experienced two consecutive years of severe flooding from the Tagliamento river in 1965 and 1966, leading to substantial changes in local infrastructure.
