Vazzola between Raboso, history and landscape

Vazzola brings together ecclesiastical architectural history, the memory of the First World War, Raboso wine and a short circular walk through landscapes and villages. If you are looking for a place with cultural points of interest and a rural character for your trip to Italy, you will encounter various themes here within a compact narrative setting.

Churches and historical traces

The parish church of San Giovanni Battista in Vazzola was built in 1400 on the foundations of an older church; a well-preserved remnant of the floor from this predecessor building was rediscovered. The church has three naves and a coffered ceiling. Its artworks include works by Francesco Beccaruzzi, Francesco da Milano and Giovanni Antonio Fiumani.

Borgo Malanotte in Tezze di Vazzola is closely connected to the events of the First World War. Today, the borgo hosts various events and historical re-enactments. Along its main avenue, you can see a villa, farmhouses, courtyards, an osteria and a former horse-changing station.

Raboso del Piave and regional character

Vazzola and its hamlets have given rise to the specific designation Piave Malanotte DOCG. The wine is made mainly from Raboso Piave and, to a lesser extent, Raboso Veronese. At Tenuta Bonotto delle Tezze, the bookable tasting „Viaggio nel Raboso del Piave“ is offered, presenting Raboso del Piave in four different expressions. Bonotto's „Scuola di Raboso“ combines a guided explanation with a convivial tasting and lasts two hours.

A short route through villages and countryside

The circular route „A passeggio tra campagne e borghi di Vazzola“ is approximately 3.3 kilometres long, takes about one hour and has an elevation difference of 6 metres. A southern variant of this circular route leads to a centuries-old Bellussera vineyard. The route also goes to the British War Cemetery in Tezze di Piave. The remains of 355 British soldiers who fell in the First World War are buried there.
