Holiday apartment in Belfiore between local history and special details

Corte Bova consists of a long row of buildings arranged from east to west. At its centre stands the manor house, which adjoins the Oratorio della Santa Croce. Inside the oratorio, to the left of the entrance, there is a wooden cross without the body of Christ, wrapped in a shroud. This individual detail gives the visit a very concrete, vivid perspective on the site.

Opposite Corte Bova is a building called “Mulino”. It is actually a rice huller, in Italian pila da riso, which was used to husk rice. Ca’ Tantini also includes a park with centuries-old plants. Together, these places lead from architecture to traces shaped by agriculture and to a botanical feature that makes Belfiore interesting beyond its individual buildings.

Palaces, museum and destinations in the surrounding region

The wider region around Belfiore is home to several destinations with distinctly different characters. Villa Pisani Ferri La Rocca is a palace, as is Palazzo Giusti. The Museo Africano is a museum.

The diversity continues beyond the buildings. The ruins of Castello di Soave are located in the area around Belfiore. Parco della Motta is in the nearby surroundings. The wider regional area also includes Monte Calvarina and Monte Bellocca, both peaks, as well as Porta Vescovo, a natural rock arch.

Festivals featuring regional products

The Sagra Madonna della Strà is Belfiore’s patronal festival, takes place on the first Sunday in September and is also known as Sagra dell’Anara. The Fiera della Mela takes place on the first Sunday in October. It showcases Belfiore’s local product with exhibition areas and various activities. Visitors can get to know, view and taste products from the surrounding area. For travel planning, the two fixed occasions fall in clearly separate months and can each be considered as a separate focus of a stay.

For families with different interests, this sequence offers several themes for travel planning: local history at Corte Bova, distinctive architectural and landscape features in the surrounding region, and set dates centred on tradition and apple products. When selecting accommodation in Belfiore, you can thus weigh up a more culture-focused stay, regional discoveries and an event in September or October.
