About us
The Associazione delle Città Murate del Veneto was officially established in January 1997 under the patronage of the Veneto Region and on the initiative of the Veneto Regional Council of Italia Nostra. The aim of the Association is to promote initiatives designed to raise awareness of these towns and to protect, safeguard, conserve and enhance them..
The Association
The initiative currently comprises 34 municipalities spread across six provinces, representing communities that identify with their history and the legacy left by their ancestors.
The plains, foothills and mountainous areas, along with the shores of Lake Garda, are home to these jewels, which represent living elements of a region that wishes to offer visitors the very best it has.
These walled towns are living testimonies to art and a refined culture of ‘good living’. They are the result of a settlement history in which continuous technical innovation is accompanied by a historical and artistic heritage spanning thousands of years.
The Walled Towns
Map of the Municipalities
Veneto is a region situated in the north-east of Italy, known for the hard-working and bountiful nature of its people, with a history stretching back thousands of years and a rich artistic and historical heritage. It is a land of water, sea, lakes, lush and fertile plains, magnificent mountains and rolling hills.
The walled towns are the most evident testimonies to the roots of this history and constitute artistic and monumental features of great appeal and prestige.
