Buildings Connected with History
Castello di Mattarello, also known as Torre Franca, was built near the town of Mattarello to control the road leading from the Adige Valley through Vigolo Vattaro into Valsugana. Batteria Superiore Mattarello is located at an altitude of 350 metres on Doss Ròcol, in the cadastral area of Mattarello. Forte Mattarello is a square structure with three levels: two are above ground and one is underground. It is surrounded by a moat and a stone wall fitted with a loophole for riflemen. Forte Mattarello was built in the hamlet of Zampetta to protect two important road links. The structures therefore stand at different specific reference points: the Castello on the route from the Adige Valley through Vigolo Vattaro into Valsugana, the Batteria on Doss Ròcol and the Forte in Zampetta. At the Forte, the square layout, three levels, moat and stone wall come together as architectural features.
Aviation, Church and Villa Bortolazzi
The Museo dell’aeronautica Gianni Caproni is located in the Mattarello airport area. It displays a collection of original historic aircraft of global significance. The exhibition hall houses around twenty historic aircraft, including nine unique examples found nowhere else in the world. Another connection with the past leads to the Chiesa di San Leonardo in Mattarello: its history can be traced back to the first documentary records from 1339. Villa Bortolazzi all’Acquaviva is one of the Trentino region’s most important historic and artistic buildings. Its extensive Italian-style garden is surrounded by statues and features a swimming pool integrated into the grounds.

Parco di Mattarello features a cultural trail with works by Alberto Blasi. For those seeking a landscape experience, the route La Conca delle Novaline tra vigneti e ville storiche offers a panorama as a particular attraction. This means that, alongside buildings, outdoor art and a landscape-oriented route also have a place among the possible holiday themes.
