Holiday Apartment in Montebelluna: Culture, History and Discoveries

Montebelluna combines archaeology, astronomy, cultural remembrance, sacred art and regional honey production. If you are planning a stay in a holiday apartment in Montebelluna, you can tailor your visit to your travel group’s interests: with museums covering different fields of knowledge, historic sites and a detour to a farm shop selling its own honey.

Holiday apartment in Montebelluna for culture and discoveries

An important starting point is the Museo di Storia Naturale e Archeologia di Montebelluna. Its archaeological collections cover the period from prehistory to the Roman Imperial period. In the museum’s Sala Astronomia, an interactive helioplanetograph presents the inner solar system, including Earth, Venus and Mercury, to scale. The combination of archaeology, regional wildlife and astronomical displays makes the museum visit especially varied.

Another cultural highlight is the Museo della Fondazione Sportsystem. It was founded in 1984 and completely renovated in 2024 to mark its 40th anniversary. Today, it is a district museum. Those interested in the more recent past will find an interactive and multimedia venue at the MeVe Memoriale Veneto della Grande Guerra. The memorial is located in Montebelluna (TV), in the Villa Correr Pisani complex, and is dedicated to the conflicts and events that have shaped our recent history since the First World War. Digital elements, immersive installations, video documentation and sound design define its presentation. Villa Correr Pisani later became the home of the Memoriale Veneto della Grande Guerra.

Churches, markets and traces of military history

Until the mid-20th century, the Chiesa di Santa Maria in Colle was Montebelluna’s religious centre. Its importance as a parish church dates back to the mid-14th century. Inside, it preserves a ceiling decorated with a fresco by Francesco Fontebasso, 17th-century altars, a wooden choir dating from 1679 and a double organ designed by Gaetano Callido. Here, you gain a focused insight into the town’s religious and artistic history.

The Mercato Vecchio also takes you far back into the past. Its history dates back to the 1157 charter in which Frederick Barbarossa confirmed Bishop Ulrich’s right to levy duties on goods intended for consumption in the castle of Montebelluna. The Mercato Vecchio later became an important trading crossroads in an area stretching from Feltre to Treviso. La Tradotta follows the former Montebelluna–Susegana railway line, which was built for military purposes. The Fontana Militare was built by the Genio Militare and served to water the troops and pack animals used to supply the Montello Front, particularly during the Battle of Solstizio from 15 June to 23 June 1918.

Honey from Biadene di Montebelluna
