A cradle of our faith for my country. From here the misionary work went out to the east. Glorious holly place, with a lot of history, beautiful mosaics and old architecture. Cript is amazing with lot of relics.

One of the most important church seats in this part of Italy, also for Slovenia, Austria and Croatia. Basilica is build on the 1. century Roman mosaics, that were covered in 4. century by other level of mosaics. On top of those two layers of mosaics the present church was built. The Bell tower dated from 11. century. The three naval church has leather patriarchal seat. The crypt is full of frescos from life of Jesus and the life of saint Hermagoras and saint Fortunatus. You can admire early and fine early Christian mosaics. I liked the most the one with a turtle and the big one that represents sea with boats and sailers.

The Basilica of Aquileia is a treasure that everyone should visit. The mosaic floor is absolutely stunning, and the space around the Basilica is pleasant and relaxing. The frescoed crypt is also fantastic! Absolutely recommended when passing through the FVG region!

The Basilica is a beautiful piece of architecture. Majestic with a magnificent mosaic floor and ornate wooden roof. Also fantastic is the visit to the archaeological dig area below the Basilica where it is possible to see the early roman mosaic dating back to the first century a.d. The area surrounding the Basilica is also very interesting and kept in order.

Fascinating early Christian basilica. Floor mosaics back to the 5th C.

One of the most beautiful churches ever!

Italy is a country of historical beauties and this Cattedrale is undoubtedly one of them. As soon as one enters the building is immediately overwhelmed by history: the view of the soffit and of the floors, covered by mosaics, is truly breathtaking. When admiring this church you can “touch” the architectural, engineering and artistic ability of our ancestors: these treasures have withstood over a millennium (even more, when considering the original layers dating from B.C.). The building basement is a surprise of mosaics and there it’s really astonishing how, through small tiles, those artists were able to depict amazing subjects, such as animals, faces and various objects. Just a small suggestion: the descriptions of the mosaics made on the handrails, has it is done, is not a very clever solutions, since most of the writings have gone.

A true hidden gem of a museum—what a delightful discovery! I didn’t anticipate much given its small-town setting, but it far exceeded my expectations. For anyone who appreciates history and art, this is an absolute must-visit: bright, thoughtfully curated, and filled with remarkable artifacts. Just across the road, the Basilica is equally impressive, along with the First World War cemetery honoring Italian servicemen

Aquileia was after Rome the main city of the Roman empire, so there is much to see and in very good condition! You can by a 48 hour combiticket for both basilica and all the museums, bij the tourist information!! Not by the basilica! that's all on walking distance from the cheerful camping site! It is wonderful

An underrated and often overlooked site, we were surprised to find hardly any other tourists during our visit. At first, we thought there wouldn’t be much to see and that we’d walk through quickly, but we ended up spending 2–3 hours exploring. The place is full of fascinating monuments and artefacts, offering plenty to discover. Highly recommended for anyone interested in diving deeper into the treasures of the Roman era. There are also many English information boards, which makes it enjoyable and accessible for international visitors.

Great presentation of the life, customs, and luxury of the ancient city of Aquileia. One can learn a good bit about the city through an interesting chronology. The exhibition leads you to discover the Austrian origins of the museum (1882) and its first acquisition as part of the Italian state (1915), and is then divided into sections: public sculpture, domestic luxury (wonderful mosaics and ancient glass!), trade and crafts, coins and jewels. The collection of tomb inscriptions, housed in the garden and being re-ordered now, is impressive. Great conclusion for a day trip in Aquileia!

Relatively compact, but still reasonably stacked museum that is poised to give one a multilayer insight into life in Roman times, particularly 2nd century BCE to 3rd, CE. Higher society art, as well as more daily objects are well-presented, and trade links covered through respective items. 2-3 hours at leisurely pace should cover everything - don't forget the 'accessible storage' area in the back, where more nuanced and less 'thematic' course may be traced.

Great museum that was open later than we expected (7pm). We visited on a Saturday (25 March 2023) around 430pm. We spent about 1.5 hrs but could have spent 2-3h reading more signs. 3 floors inside + outdoor area -- unfortunately the outdoor area is under renovation so you can't tour the whole thing but you can still enjoy some of it. Signs in Italian and English that gave great insight. A small gift shop of mostly books but a few other treasures. Loved learning about the city and seeing so many Roman artifacts. It'll never get old seeing back into history & daily lives like this!

Amazing collection of anticquites including absolutely superb mosaics, sculptures and curved pictures-miniatures on gemmas. Exposition are located in three floors building and big yard and one hour is not enough to overlook all details.

You can listen to the online audio guide here. This site, dating back to the 2nd century BC, was once a central hub of political and social life in ancient Aquileia. The well-preserved ruins, including columns and pavement, provide a vivid picture of Roman urban planning and architecture. Informative plaques help bring the history to life, making it a must-visit for anyone interested in Roman history and archaeology.

A interesting place we can hope that the renovation works will be finished as soon as possible ❤️

Absolutely 💯 must see. Very interesting

Currently indergoong a restauration. Very impressive antient site

Historical treasure, worth visiting. I recommend some reading about it before.

Superb archeological area - relics from Roman and Byzantine eras, including beautiful mosaics. slightly off the beaten track but worth the trip with an fairly easy bus ride from the station Cervignano or from Grado

Under excavation? Not open to visitors, can be viewed from behind a fence (next to a busy road)...

Nice bell tower. Cannot enter inside though

(Translated by Google) The tower was closed in March 2025 for various work, but it would be very interesting in several ways: 1) It offers a great view over Aquileia and 2) You can get to the excavations in the basement via the basilica (charged entry fee) and from below you can basically see the stone base on which the campanile was built. Unique! (Original) Der Turm war zwar in 03/2025 wegen diverser Arbeiten geschlossen, wäre aber in mehrfacher Hinsicht sehr interessant: 1) Er bietet eine tolle Aussicht über Aquileia und 2) Kann man über die Basilika (kostenpflichtiger Eintritt) zu den Ausgrabungen im Untergeschoß gelangen und sieht von unten quasi den Steinsockel, auf dem der Campanile errichtet wurde. Einzigartig!

(Translated by Google) Beautiful excavation around the base of the bell tower, more than positive emotions. You walk around the foundations in the magnificently exposed archaeological area (Original) Bellissimo scavo attorno elle fondamentale del campanile, emozioni più che positive. Si gira attorno alle fondamenta nell' area archeologica magnificamente esposta

(Translated by Google) Bell tower of the Basilica of Aquileia of great historical importance, 73 meters high, imposing and visible from different directions dating back to 1031 completely built in Romanesque style (Original) Campanile della Basilica di Aquileia di grande rilevanza storica, alto 73 metri, imponente e visibile da diverse direzioni risalente al 1031 completamente costruito in stile romanico

(Translated by Google) With its seventy-three meters high, the bell tower of the basilica of Aquileia stands out massively over the Friulian plain. Built by the patriarch Poppone probably in conjunction with the basilica or immediately after, in any case before his death in 1042, the bell tower had exploited the quarries of building material represented by the ancient buildings in ruins, in particular the amphitheatre. It originally consisted of a simple tower with a belfry and a low four-pitched roof. Over time, the reinforcement steps were added to the base (14th century) and, in the first half of the 16th century, under the patriarchs of the Venetian Grimani family, the bell tower was rebuilt. Finally, the octagonal lantern was built with the conical roof above, which still today completes the thousand-year-old structure of the bell tower. In 1962, the excavation carried out inside the bell tower brought to light an interesting stratigraphic sequence from the medieval and modern era, relating to the life phase of the tower. Furthermore, a further portion of the mosaic floor that decorated the north hall of the Theodorian cult complex (313-320 AD) was brought to light. (Original) Con i suoi settantatrè metri di altezza, il campanile della basilica di Aquileia svetta massiccio sulla pianura friulana. Costruito dal patriarca Poppone probabilmente in concomitanza con la basilica o subito dopo, comunque prima della sua morte avvenuta nel 1042, il campanile aveva sfruttato le cave di materiale edilizio rappresentate dagli antichi edifici in rovina, in particolare dall’anfiteatro. In origine era costituito da una semplice torre con cella campanaria e basso tetto a quattro falde. Nel corso del tempo, fu aggiunta la gradinata di rinforzo alla base (XIV secolo) e, nella prima metà del Cinquecento, sotto i patriarchi della famiglia veneziana dei Grimani, fu rifatta la cella campanaria. Infine, venne costruita la lanterna di forma ottagonale con la copertura conica soprastante, che ancor oggi completa la millenaria struttura del campanile. Nel 1962, lo scavo effettuato all’interno del campanile portò alla luce un interessante sequenza stratigrafica di epoca medievale e moderna, relativa alla fase di vita della torre. Fu messa in luce, inoltre, un’ulteriore porzione del pavimento musivo che decorava l’aula nord del complesso di culto teodoriano (313-320 d.C.).

(Translated by Google) I visited the foundations of the bell tower which rest on the foundations of the ancient church from which magnificent mosaics emerge including the beautiful one of the rooster against the tortoise... good against evil..... I didn't climb the bell tower but they tell me that the view is wonderful and extends all around until you can see the Grado lagoon and all the remains that have so far been discovered of the ancient city of Aquileia. (Original) Ho visitato le fondamenta del campanile che poggiano su sulle fondamenta dell'antica chiesa da cui emergono magnifici mosaici tra cui quello bellissimo del gallo contro la tartaruga... il bene contro il male..... Non sono salita sul campanile ma mi dicono che la vista è meravigliosa e spazia tutto intorno fino a poter vedere la laguna di Grado e tutti i resti che sono stati finora scoperti dell'antica città di Aquileia.

Historic Church from 4th C

Very interesting

(Translated by Google) A special place. Peaceful and dignified. Historically very interesting, we are reminded here of the horrors and deaths of the Great War. Was it really so sweet for the young men to die for their fatherland? Wouldn't they have preferred to stay at home with their loved ones? The Arkosolium provides a clear view of the karst, the land to be reached. At that time Austria-Hungary, then after the hard-fought victory Italy for a few years, today Slovenia. Let us live in peace with each other and honor this beautiful country, in whose earth heroes, but bodies ravaged by war, rest. (Original) Ein besonderer Ort. Friedlich und würdevoll. Historisch hoch interessant, wir werden hier an die Schrecken und das Sterben des Großen Krieges erinnert. Ob es für die jungen Männer wirklich so süß war für das Vaterland zu sterben? Wären sie nicht lieber bei ihren Lieben daheim geblieben? Das Arkosolium gibt den Blick frei auf den Karst, das zu erreichende Land. Damals Österreich-Ungarn, dann nach dem schwer erkämpften Sieg einige Jahre Italien, heute Slowenien. Laßt uns doch in Frieden miteinander leben und dieses wunderschöne Land ehren, in dessen Erde hier Helden, aber doch durch den Krieg geschundene Leiber ruhen.

(Translated by Google) A journey through history that stirs your soul Aquileia is not just an archaeological site, but a true time machine. While the remains of Roman grandeur transport you back to a distant era, it is in the cemetery that the heart of the journey is revealed in all its power. Here, history becomes personal. The tomb of Maria Bergamas, the mother who chose the Unknown Soldier on behalf of all the mothers of Italy, tells a story of sacrifice and honor that transcends time. Her son, Antonio, lost among thousands of unidentified soldiers, became the symbol of an entire nation's grief. This sacrifice, also engraved in the words of D'Annunzio on the walls of the Basilica, forces us to reflect deeply. Leaving Aquileia means not only having seen a piece of history, but having received a powerful warning. The stories of these men and women force you to reflect on who we are, what truly matters, and what values we should remember and honor every day. I highly recommend seeing all of Aquileia, but stop and reflect in the cemetery. It's there that you'll understand that the past can still speak to us and teach us lessons for the future. (Original) Un viaggio nella storia che ti scuote l'anima Aquileia non è solo un sito archeologico, ma una vera e propria macchina del tempo. Mentre i resti della grandezza romana ti riportano a un'epoca lontanissima, è nel cimitero che il cuore del viaggio si rivela in tutta la sua potenza. Qui, la storia diventa personale. La tomba di Maria Bergamas, la madre che scelse il Milite Ignoto a nome di tutte le madri d'Italia, racconta una storia di sacrificio e onore che va oltre il tempo. Suo figlio, Antonio, scomparso tra migliaia di soldati non identificabili, divenne il simbolo del dolore di un'intera nazione. Questo sacrificio, scolpito anche nelle parole di D'Annunzio sulle mura della Basilica, ci impone una riflessione profonda. Uscire da Aquileia significa non solo aver visto un pezzo di storia, ma aver ricevuto un monito potente. Le storie di questi uomini e donne ti costringono a una riflessione su chi siamo, su cosa conta davvero e su quali valori dovremmo ricordare e onorare ogni giorno. Consiglio vivamente di vedere tutta Aquileia, ma fermatevi a riflettere nel cimitero. È lì che capirete che il passato può ancora parlarci e darci una lezione per il futuro.

(Translated by Google) Next to the Basilica of Santa Maria Assunta in Aquileia (Udine), this sacred site is of great historical importance. Ten of the eleven Unknown Soldiers are buried here, as well as Maria Bergamas, named after the Unknown Soldier of the First World War, who now rests at the Altar of the Fatherland in Rome. (Original) Accanto alla basilica di Santa Maria Assunta di Aquileia (Udine). Sito sacro e di grande importanza storica. Vi sono sepolti 10 degli 11 Militi ignoti, oltre a Maria Bergamas, chiamata a indicare il Milite ignoto della Prima guerra mondiale, che oggi riposa all’Altare della Patria a Roma

(Translated by Google) Located behind the Basilica, it houses the remains of the first Italian and Austro-Hungarian soldiers who fell on the Karst during the First World War. A place of remembrance. (Original) Situato dietro alla Basilica accoglie le spoglie dei primi soldati italiani e austro-ungarici caduti sul Carso durante la Prima Guerra Mondiale. Un luogo della Memoria.

(Translated by Google) A small cemetery located next to the Basilica of Aquileia. This important Roman and medieval monument overlooks the small cemetery where several Italian soldiers from the First World War are buried, alongside several pre-existing funerary monuments. Compared to the monumental rhetoric of nearby Redipuglia, the Heroes' Cemetery (as it is called) stands out for its sobriety and compact size; obviously, the number of fallen soldiers buried there is also far fewer. In the linear simplicity of the cemetery (all identical, aligned, simple crosses), small memorial stones and headstones commemorate specific fallen soldiers. Many of these headstones are decorated with Art Nouveau motifs, in keeping with the spirit of the era. The simplicity of the cemetery is broken only by a small central mausoleum, which contains ten "unknown soldiers," all except the one chosen by Mrs. Bergamas, who now rests in Rome at the Altare della Patria. A visit to the Heroes' Cemetery takes just a few minutes. A few minutes during which it is advisable to pause and reflect on all the lives that were lost in this part of Italy between 1915 and 1918, and which as such should be respectfully honored and remembered. (Original) Piccolo cimitero situato a lato della Basilica di Aquileia. L'importante storica di Aquileia romana e medievale sovrasta il piccolo camposanto nel quale trovano sepoltura alcuni soldati italiani della prima guerra mondiale, a fianco di alcuni preesistenti monumenti sepolcrali. Rispetto alla monumentale retorica del vicino Redipuglia, il Cimitero degli Eroi (questo il nome) si differenzia per la sobrietà e le dimensioni ristrette; ovviamente anche i caduti inumati sono molti meno. Nella lineare semplicità del cimitero (croci tutte uguali, allineate, sobrie) si distinguono piccoli cippi e lapidi che ricordano specifici caduti. Molte di queste lapidi sono decorate con motivi Art Nouveau, nello spirito dell'epoca. La semplicità del Cimitero è rotta solo da un piccolo mausoleo centrale, nel quale sono inumati dieci "militi ignoti", ovvero tutti salvo quello che scelse la signora Bergamas, e che ora riposa a Roma nell'Altare della Patria. La visita del Cimitero degli Eroi prende pochi minuti. Pochi minuti nei quali è consigliabile fermarsi a riflettere su tutte le vite che sono state spezzate in questa parte d'Italia fra il 1915 e il 1918, e che come tali andrebbero rispettosamente omaggiate e ricordate.

Only when you see an old Roman port, which has been dry for like a thousand years or so, you can say "you get it how time passes quickly"...

Nice Area, free entry

If you are into bicking these archeological sites are nice to visit.

Nice

A really peaceful Roman cemetery, in the dead centre of Roman Aquileia. It's worth the few minutes walk from the main Street.

Good, nice place

(Translated by Google) Roman-era ruins in fairly good condition, although some parts of columns, walls, and especially floors remain, very interesting, as they are made of small mosaics forming designs. Very curious and interesting to see, and admission is free. (Original) Ruinas de la época romana en bastante buen estado, aunque quedan algunas partes de columnas,muros y sobre todo suelos, muy interesantes,ya que están hechos de pequeños mosaicos formando dibujos,muy curioso e interesante de ver, además,la entrada es gratuita.

There's not a lot to see, but it's still interesting to see the ancient stonework and mosaic floors. It's also free so there's no reason not to visit.

Big surprise! Huuge, beautiful mosaics, perfect next to vinery Ritter zahony, with excellent wines!

Precious mosaics. Super friendly team

Amazing collection of inscriptions!

The mosaics were impressive.

Silent, complete, lots of ancient Roman remainings also in the giant garden.

A great experience to understand our past

(Translated by Google) In a wooden house next to the distillery you can find, admire and taste the production of this distillery which was a great discovery for me. Friendly staff who welcome you and explain the characteristics of the different grappas. Quality products and you can't leave without having purchased something (Original) In una casetta di legno a fianco della distilleria si può trovare, ammirare e degustare la produzione di questa distilleria che è stata una bella scoperta per me. Personale gentile che ti accoglie e ti spiega le caratteristiche delle diverse grappe. Prodotti di qualità e non si può no uscire senza aver acquistato qualcosa

(Translated by Google) After visiting the city of Aquileia, attracted by the sign, I stopped in the shop. The low rating isn't due to the products, which are certainly high-quality, but to the attitude of the sales assistant. Despite my questions about the products, she answered in monosyllabic terms and didn't even offer a tasting, even though I bought a bottle anyway. With a more proactive attitude, I would have definitely purchased other products as well. Too bad. (Original) Dopo la visita alla città di Aquileia, attirato dal cartello , mi sono fermato nel negozio. Il voto basso non è dovuto ai prodotti, sicuramente di qualità, ma al comportamento della commessa. Nonostante le mie domande sui prodotti ha risposto a monosillabi e non ha nemmeno proposto un assaggio nonostante abbia comunque acquistato una bottiglia. Con un atteggiamento più propositivo avrei sicuramente acquistato anche altri prodotti. Peccato

(Translated by Google) Iban is missing. I'm not a good customer maybe (Original) manca iban. non sono un buon cliente forse

(Translated by Google) The visit to the distillery had been on my mind for over 10 years when I first drank the Sgnape dal checo. Today it finally worked. The visit to the Schnaps Hut was worth it. I received excellent advice from the master distiller personally and carried a nice selection of grapes into the car. (Original) Der Besuch der Destillerie war seit über 10 Jahren in meinem Kopf als ich das erste Mal den Sgnape dal checo getrunken hatte. Heute hat es endlich geklappt.

(Translated by Google) Distillery Extensive range of different wines, brandies and liqueurs. The range is rounded off by small pastries and pasta. Prices are quite reasonable for the quality offered.

(Translated by Google) It is located on the outskirts of Aquileia. From the outside you don't give them a penny but as soon as you enter you immediately change your mind and then when you talk to the owner you immediately realize that you are not dealing with a person who is there to sell you a product like in the supermarket, but with a craftsman with years of experience who knows what he is doing and does it with passion.. moreover with affordable prices 👍 (Original) Si trova alle porte di Aquileia da fuori non gli dai una lira ma appena sei entrato cambi subito idea e poi quando parli con il proprietario ti accorgi subito che non hai a che fare con una persona che è lì per venderti un prodotto come al supermercato, ma con un artigiano con anni di esperienza che sa quello che fa e lo fa con passione.. oltretutto con prezzi accessibili 👍

Just on the road side. I visited the Great Mausoleum of Heraklion (Il Grande Mausoleo di Candia) and found it fascinating. This historic site, though less well-known, offers a quiet and uncrowded experience.

(Translated by Google) On the corner between via Giulia Augusta and via XXIV Maggio stands the imposing Great Mausoleum (17 meters high). The restoration of the funerary monument, carried out by G. Brusin and V. Degrassi in 1956 on the basis of fragments found in 1891 in Roncolon di Fiumicello (a few kilometers from Aquileia, a town located on the ancient Via Gemina), is much discussed. The cube containing the family's funerary cell - placed on steps - is surmounted by an aedicule with a spire decorated with scales. On it, the pine cone, a funerary symbol deriving from the mystery cults of Dionysus and Cybele, in which it meant fertility. In the elegant newsstand, a headless statue depicting the man who commissioned the tomb. (Original) All’angolo tra via Giulia Augusta e via XXIV Maggio si staglia, imponente (è alto 17 metri), il Grande Mausoleo. Il restauro del monumento funebre, curato da G. Brusin e V. Degrassi nel 1956 sulla base di frammenti ritrovati nel 1891 a Roncolon di Fiumicello (pochi chilometri da Aquileia, paese sito sull’antica via Gemina), è molto discusso. Il dado contenente la cella funeraria della famiglia – posto su gradini – è sormontato da un’edicola con cuspide decorata a squame. Su di essa, la pigna, simbolo funerario derivante dai culti misterici di Dioniso e Cibele, in cui significava fecondità. Nell’elegante edicola, una statua acefala raffigurante l’uomo che commissionò la tomba.

Great place to start exploring Aquileia. We bought the walking audio tour (bring headphones to listen as you walk around) which included entry to all the ticketed attractions including the historical museum and a return trip on the ferry to Grado (ferry is a 1hr trip one way so relax). This only cost us 18€ each. You can start and stop at any time and to be used within 48hrs so you have plenty of time.

Lovely boat ride from grado to aquileia! Perfect if you go with the the bikes to make a ride in Alquileia. Good explanations of the Captain in German and Italian.

Very informative, polite and helpful staff, AS IN ALL FVG Tourism points around Friuli. Speak moderate to very good English, can help you with local transportation. Free map of Aquileia, tons of information if you want too.

The staff at Aquileia onfopoint were very helpful. With beautiful English they alerted me to how bicycles and local boats and trains interact in this region. Very valuable information, as I was then able to cycle according to the boat timetable, making my travels much more enjoyable. Great people with solid information.

These ladies are realy very friendly and hepful. Thank you.

Very friendly and informative. One of the best tourist information offices I have been to. Grazie mille!

Great plans and informations

Wonderful floor mosaics, especially the drapery mosaic with the light and shadow effect.

(Translated by Google) It seems incredible to think that this place was, until the 1950s, used as a stable. The palace is a bit hidden, but it is worth looking for it (it is a few meters from the tourist office where you have to buy the ticket) and visiting it. What struck me most is an incredible mosaic where the colors fade, and the different levels of the excavations, where different centuries emerge, one more beautiful and particular than the other. The upper floor is used as an exhibition, and it is worth stopping by. There are also numerous free brochures on the history of Aquileia and the excavations (Original) Sembra incredibile pensare che questo luogo era, fino agli anno '50 dello scorso secolo, adibito a stalla. Il palazzo è un po' nascosto, ma vale la pena di cercarlo (è a pochi metri dall'ufficio del turismo dove si deve fare il biglietto) e di visitarlo. Quello che mi ha colpito di più è un incredibile mosaico dove i colori sfumano, e i diversi livelli degli scavi, dove secoli diversi affiorano, uno più bello e particolare dell'altro. Il piano superiore è adibito a mostra, e vale la pena di passarci. Vi si trovano anche numerosi opuscoli gratuiti sulla storia di Aquileia e gli scavi

An amazing collection of historical pieces, set in a beautiful town

(Translated by Google) APSE HALL: dates back to the 4th century phase, built inside the block occupied by the Theodorian basilica complex and perhaps belonging to the bishop's residence. It is a vast reception room (about 100 square metres), built according to architectural models in vogue at the time. The apse, over 5 meters wide, was raised and connected to the floor of the hall by a large step. The walls and ceiling were decorated with frescoes. In the mosaic floor there is an original curtain motif made of tiles in shaded colours, to enhance the representative function of the apse itself. CLASSROOM: the floor is divided into 3 different fields of vegetal bands, with a box in the center of which only part of the frame is preserved. Simple geometric textures, with polychrome figurative motifs. The depictions are reminiscent of Roman mosaic production: fish, octopus, shells, birds among bunches of grapes, flowering racemes, baskets and basins full of fruit (the wealth of nature as an idea of ​​well-being and prosperity).

CLASSROOM: the floor is divided into 3 different backgrounds in plant bands, with a square in the center of which only part of the frame remains. Simple geometric textures, with polychrome figurative motifs. The depictions recall the Roman mosaic production: fish, octopuses, shells, birds among bunches of grapes, flowered racemes, baskets and bowls full of fruit (wealth of nature as an idea of ​​well-being and prosperity).

I visited the vinery during a stay in Grado and it was definitely one of the highlights. The owner's son gave me and my friend a very interesting tour of the whole place and provided us with great insights into the production and business during a tasting. The wines are great, and the hospitality just so. I highly recommend a visit, and to call in advance and book a tour in case you are in a hurry. Will come again!

I had an unforgetable time at Ca'Tullio today! The grandson of the founder gave me an increbile tour trough the wineyard and explained me everthing from the history of the place to the current wine making process. You can feel the love and passion he has for the history and handcraft related to this place. Following this, I had the pleasure to taste some wines, including high quality ham, salami and cheese and it was as good as the tour, served by his marvelous colleague. She was so very accomodating and friendly! I would have loved to spend more time at this awsome place and would be happy to bought more wine but my time was to short and my trunk to small. I am looking forward to visit you again. Thank you soo much!!!

Fantastic. We went for a tour of the winehouse and a taste itinerary for both wines and local products. The girl following us was very kind and explained us a lot of the story of the place and the wines. A must try

beauiful place, great service, good wines

Ecceptional sales area in an attractive building.Fine wine with excellent service .Well worth a visit

(Translated by Google) This little church is a small jewel, one of many that can be found in Aquileia. Located a few meters from the entrance to the Archaeological Museum, the church is worth a visit. (Original) Questa chiesetta è un piccolo gioiello, uno dei tanti che si possono trovare ad Aquileia. Posta a pochi metri dall'ingresso del Museo Archeologico, la chiesetta merita un visita.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful little church, with a pleasant frescoed vault in local baroque style. A little gem. (Original) Bella chiesetta, con gradevole volta affrescata in stile barocco locale. Un gioiellino.

Wonderful floor mosaics, especially the drapery mosaic with the light and shadow effect.

(Translated by Google) It seems incredible to think that this place was, until the 1950s, used as a stable. The palace is a bit hidden, but it is worth looking for it (it is a few meters from the tourist office where you have to buy the ticket) and visiting it. What struck me most is an incredible mosaic where the colors fade, and the different levels of the excavations, where different centuries emerge, one more beautiful and particular than the other. The upper floor is used as an exhibition, and it is worth stopping by. There are also numerous free brochures on the history of Aquileia and the excavations (Original) Sembra incredibile pensare che questo luogo era, fino agli anno '50 dello scorso secolo, adibito a stalla. Il palazzo è un po' nascosto, ma vale la pena di cercarlo (è a pochi metri dall'ufficio del turismo dove si deve fare il biglietto) e di visitarlo. Quello che mi ha colpito di più è un incredibile mosaico dove i colori sfumano, e i diversi livelli degli scavi, dove secoli diversi affiorano, uno più bello e particolare dell'altro. Il piano superiore è adibito a mostra, e vale la pena di passarci. Vi si trovano anche numerosi opuscoli gratuiti sulla storia di Aquileia e gli scavi

An amazing collection of historical pieces, set in a beautiful town

(Translated by Google) APSE HALL: dates back to the 4th century phase, built inside the block occupied by the Theodorian basilica complex and perhaps belonging to the bishop's residence. It is a vast reception room (about 100 square metres), built according to architectural models in vogue at the time. The apse, over 5 meters wide, was raised and connected to the floor of the hall by a large step. The walls and ceiling were decorated with frescoes. In the mosaic floor there is an original curtain motif made of tiles in shaded colours, to enhance the representative function of the apse itself. CLASSROOM: the floor is divided into 3 different fields of vegetal bands, with a box in the center of which only part of the frame is preserved. Simple geometric textures, with polychrome figurative motifs. The depictions are reminiscent of Roman mosaic production: fish, octopus, shells, birds among bunches of grapes, flowering racemes, baskets and basins full of fruit (the wealth of nature as an idea of ​​well-being and prosperity).

(Original) AULA ABSIDATA: risale alla fase di IV secolo, costruita all'interno dell'isolato occupato dal complesso basilicale teodoriano e forse appartenente alla residenza del vescovo. Si tratta di una vasta sala di ricevimento (circa 100 metri quadrati), realizzata secondo modelli architettonici in voga al tempo. L'abside con ampiezza di oltre 5 metri era sopraelevata e raccordata al piano dell'aula da un gradone. Le pareti e soffitto erano decorati con affreschi. Nel pavimento a mosaico vi è un originale motivo a tendaggio realizzato in tessere dai colori sfumati, per esaltare la funzione rappresentativa dell'abside stessa. AULA: il pavimento è suddiviso in 3 diverse campiture in fasce vegetali, con al centro un riquadro del quale si conserva solo parte della cornice. Semplici trame geometriche, con motivi figurati policromi. Le raffigurazioni ricordano la produzione musiva romana: pesci, polpi, conchiglie, volatili fra grappoli d'uva, racemi fioriti, cesti e bacili ricolmi di frutta (ricchezza della natura come idea di benessere e prosperità).
