Detailed itinerary

The castle of Conegliano is the medieval center of the Veneto region. Located on the top of the Colle di Giano, in a strategic place, the castle dominates the whole city and the surrounding territory.

The castle of San Salvatore is an ancient fortified complex.
It is currently divided into the crenellated walls, the Odoardo palace block and the large tower together with the Santa Croce church, elements connected to the ruins of other buildings

The keep of the Collalto castle is one of the few defensive structures that have remained intact in the mediaeval castle together with the two access gates to the south-east and to a terro of the second search wall that was transformed into a bell tower in the 1800s. The tower is the protagnist of the story of Bianca di Collalto where the poor maid of the court collatina was walled alive for the Jealousy of the Countess Aicha da Camino

Castelbrando (in the Middle Ages called Castello della Costa, Castrum Costae) is a castle located in the Italian municipality of Cison di Valmarino (TV). It rises on the slopes of Monte Castello, from which it dominates the villages of Valmareno and Cison. It owes its present name to the ancient Forlì family of the Brandolini, who had the lordship for centuries.
