Bassano del Grappa, Historic commune in Vicenza Province, Italy
The city lies at the foothills of the Venetian Prealps, with the Brenta River flowing through its center at 129 meters above sea level.
Founded in the 2nd century BC by a Roman named Bassianus, the settlement gained prominence as an agricultural estate before joining the Venetian Republic in 1404.
The Ponte degli Alpini, designed by Andrea Palladio in 1569, stands as a wooden covered bridge connecting both sides of the Brenta River.
The city contains numerous distilleries where visitors can learn about the production methods of grappa, a spirit made from grape pomace.
The municipality received the Gold Medal of Military Valor for its resistance during World War I, leading to its name change from Bassano to Bassano del Grappa.
