Discover Noventa Di Piave

Noventa Di Piave combines evidence from different eras with a riverside landscape. This creates a destination where culture and routes along the Piave can be combined in a manageable way. This character is particularly evident in the places around San Mauro Martire and at the Parco Fluviale.

Archaeological Traces and Art at San Mauro Martire

In the area of the former San Mauro Martire church, excavations between 1979 and 1981 uncovered a Roman, medieval, and Renaissance complex. The present-day Parrocchia di San Mauro Martire was completed in 1923 based on a design by Professor Possamai and architect Rupolo. This means that both older settlement and construction phases and a 20th-century church building are central to this site.

The interior of the Parrocchia di San Mauro Martire also contains distinctive works of art. There is a fresco by Tiburzio Donadon depicting the Triumph of the Immaculate among angels and the four Evangelists. The church also houses a processional cross from the late 14th century, considered one of the most significant art treasures in the Veneto region. If you would like to shape your stay in Noventa Di Piave around its cultural history, different eras and art forms come together here at a specific, named location.

The Piave as a Natural and Recreational Area

The Parco Fluviale is located on the site of the ancient river port of Noventa di Piave. From the town center, you can reach the park through an underpass in the embankment, locally known as the “Tunnel.” This specific connection places the park within the town without requiring its location to be explained solely through an abstract description of the landscape.

For routes along the river, the “Percorso BIM Basso Piave” provides a shared route for pedestrians and cyclists. The cycling and walking path runs along the lower Piave and passes through Noventa di Piave as well as Fossalta di Piave, Musile di Piave, San Donà di Piave, Jesolo, and Eraclea. In your free time, you can use the route on foot or by bicycle and include several municipalities along the lower Piave in your own exploration.

Il Pendolino: Guided Visit or Outdoor Route

Another option is offered by the Centro Didattico Naturalistico Il Pendolino. There, you can take a guided tour of the diorama hall about waterways, with related laboratory activities. In addition, an outdoor route along the lower Piave is available. These two formats are clearly distinct: the visit to the diorama hall combines a guided tour and laboratory activities, while the alternative route explores the river environment outdoors.

The center also includes the “Sentiero natura” of Il Pendolino. The approximately 2 km-long walk leads between the agricultural landscape and the Piave River. The approximate length is deliberately intended only as a guideline; the focus is on the connection between the agriculturally shaped surroundings and the river landscape.

Noventa Di Piave as a Destination in the Veneto Region

Noventa Di Piave is therefore particularly suitable for travelers who would like to consider cultural points of reference and routes along the Piave when choosing accommodation. The documented destinations range from archaeological traces and sacred art to a riverside park, a cycling and walking path, and nature-focused offerings with different visit formats.
