Description of Tour

TWO-HOUR TOUR

A walk through the alleys of Cividale will take you back in time!

Beautifully situated near the Slovenian border and surrounded by rolling hills, Cividale del Friuli is a charming town with a rich history. The River Natisone flows through its center, spanned by the famous Devil’s Bridge.

Cividale also boasts fascinating museums:

• The Archaeological Museum – with precious finds from the Longobard period

• The Christian Museum – featuring an 8th-century altar and baptismal font, as well as relics and treasures of the Patriarchs

• The Monastery of Santa Maria in Valle – home to the extraordinary Longobard Temple, once used by representatives of the Lombard king

The Christian Museum is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays; other sites are open throughout the week (please check opening times).

During this two-hour guided tour, we will focus on the town’s most significant Longobard monuments and highlights:

• Piazza Paolo Diacono – the most beautiful square in Cividale

• The Cathedral – with Renaissance features and treasures inside

• The Monastery of Santa Maria in Valle – with the remarkable Longobard Temple

• The Devil’s Bridge – with stunning views of the Natisone River

Please note: The entrance fee to the Monastery of Santa Maria in Valle is not included in the tour price.

???? If you would like to add a visit to one of the museums (Archaeological or Christian Museum) along with the Monastery, please book the three-hour tour of Cividale.
