Mogliano Veneto: Villas, Art and Routes to Venice

Between Treviso and Venice

The Terraglio is the road between Treviso and Venice that leads to Mogliano Veneto. In addition, a new combined cycling and walking route allows residents and tourists to reach Venice from Mogliano Veneto safely and without a car. For your travel planning, this creates a clear link between staying in Mogliano Veneto and travelling to Venice. Depending on your personal pace, you can plan the road connection as part of your journey or make the car-free route a focus in its own right.

Art, Villas and Sacred Architecture

The Museo Toni Benetton is located in Marocco di Mogliano Veneto, in the province of Treviso, in the former cellars of Villa Marignana. It displays several masterpieces by the 20th-century sculptor Toni Benetton, who used iron as his preferred medium of expression. For those interested in modern sculpture, the site brings together a clearly identifiable material and artistic profile in a specific setting.

Villa Stucky was the headquarters of the Third Army in 1917. Its Central European architectural lines differ markedly from the simple, austere lines of Venetian villas. In the Duomo arcipretale di Santa Maria Assunta in Mogliano Veneto, the floor plan follows the shape of a Latin cross and comprises three naves. Frescoes by Sebastiano Santi depicting the Annunciation flank the entrance to the presbytery.

Other Cultural Sites in the Area

The Forte Carpenedo and Forte Gazzera forts are located in the area around Mogliano Veneto. The Palazzo dei Trecento is also nearby. The National Archaeology Museum of Altino is likewise located in the vicinity of Mogliano Veneto. Together, these sites broaden the cultural perspective beyond individual villas and churches to include fortifications, palace architecture and archaeological themes.

Parks, Islands and the Surrounding Region

The romantically designed park of Villa Condulmer features paths, bridges, numerous tree species and a small lake. At the Parco di Villa Longobardi, an English garden and a small woodland were created at the beginning of the 19th century. Those who would also like to include parks and historic gardens in their travel plans will find two grounds with distinct characters here. The islands of Carbonera, San Secondo and Tronchetto are located in the area around Mogliano Veneto.

Festa di San Martino in November

The Festa di San Martino takes place in November to celebrate the new wine and includes traditional food and live music. For your travel timing, this festival therefore provides a clear seasonal highlight if you would like to combine local cuisine, wine and community events.
