The Fontana delle Tette, located in Treviso, is an ancient sculpted fountain that has a curious history. During the domination of the Republic of Venice, this fountain poured white and red wine on the occasion of particular celebrations. Its name, translated into English, means “The Fountain of Tits”. The fountain was built in 1559 on the orders of Alvise Da Ponte, mayor of Treviso, following a severe drought that hit the city and the surrounding countryside. In honor of each new Podestà ( a chief magistrate of a medieval Italian town) the fountain gushed red wine from one breast and white wine from the other. All citizens could drink for free for three days during these celebrations. The original fountain was located inside the Palazzo Pretorio, in via Calmaggiore. Today, a copy of the original sculpture is placed in the courtyard of Palazzo Zignoli, while the original is preserved under the portico of Palazzo dei Trecento. The Fountain of Tits represents a curious and fascinating piece of history, testimony to past times and unique traditions. 🍷🍇 Visited February 2024

Very nice museum, I went there at about 12:00 and was almost alone and I enjoyed it very much! This museum had English translations and it was nice because I could read about the exhibits. The building is spectacular with the inner garden space and the old church. I also liked the fact that some rooms had a sensor that opened the lights when you walked in the room, so you’re saving energy and is a nice touch seeing the exhibits light up gradually. The stuff was very friendly!

Beautiful place for a walk , if your lucky you'll see ducks swans rabbits herons etc. Bistro on the wall is excellent for a drink and foccacia

Refreshing environment

(Translated by Google) Beautiful on the outside but above all on the inside with beautiful decorations but above all well executed. (Original) Bellissima all'esterno ma sopratutto all'interno con bellissime decorazioni ma sopratutto ben eseguite.

This beautiful monumental church is located in the south-western part of the historic center, on the left bank of the Sile, in an area mostly recently built as it was severely damaged by the bombings of 1944. Attached to the building is the former Dominican convent, today episcopal seminary. The Church of San Nicolò was built in the early 1300s by the Dominicans also thanks to the substantial bequests of the friar Niccolò Boccalino, better known as Pope Benedict XI. With its simple shapes, but elongated upwards, with the massive perimeter walls just broken by thin slits from which a light enters tempered by the ancient windows, the Church of San Nicolò marks a moment of transition between the robust Romanesque style and the elegant Gothic of transalpine origin. The interior of S. Nicolò has a large space, where you can breathe a pleasant atmosphere of brightness that is reflected in the warm and golden tones of the brick. The Latin cross of the building is divided into three naves cut by a transept on which five parallel apse chapels open. The columns, which support the simple carined wooden ceiling, show frescoes by Tommaso da Modena, present in the second column on the left, depicting San Girolamo, Santa Agnese and San Romualdo. Other frescoes in the church are attributed to his school, although not directly to the teacher. There are 12 columns such as the number of the Apostles, among which the first 2 are in stone. In the presbytery, there is the funeral monument of Agostino Onigo (15th century), a valuable sculptural work by Giovanni Buora and Pietro, Antonio and Tullio Lombardo. Wonderful paintings belong to Lorenzo Lotto, Giovanni Buonconsiglio and Girolamo Pennacchi with the collaboration of Giovanni Matteo da Treviso. The important people of Treviso in the Cappella Onigo were painted by Lorenzo Lotto in the 16th century. The patrons of the time wanted the masters to build the temple with a precise arrangement of windows, medallions and frescoes. Thus the church was built at an angle of 91 degrees and 4 minutes with respect to the line of the sun, and on the day of the winter solstice, around noon, the rays hit perfectly the six medallions arranged on the north side of the church.

A beautiful church built in the Romanesque-Gothic style. Impressive both outside and inside. Her history is extremely interesting. In the early years of the thirteenth century the municipality of Treviso issued statutes that allowed the mendicant orders to settle inside the walls. A small group of Friars Minor, sent by Francis of Assisi himself, thus arrived in Treviso in 1216, and took up their headquarters in the north-east of the city center, in the area beyond the Cagnan Grande. In this area, which according to tradition was assigned to them by the powerful Da Camino family, the Franciscans built a simple monastery and a chapel dedicated to the Virgin Mary. The community soon became numerous and in 1231 the church and convent began to be built. In 1270 the buildings were completed. An important role in the endowment of the convent was played by Gherardo da Camino, an Italian leader and feudal lord. He is commonly considered the main exponent of the da Camino family. Being a church of regulars, in 1797 the church was occupied by the French and the conventual minor friars were expelled. In 1806 the convent was suppressed by the laws of the Kingdom of Italy. The church was thus used for military purposes and as a stable, while the two large cloisters were demolished. Only in 1928, after a restoration, was it reopened. The interior of the church is extremely beautiful in simplicity and is full of significant works by great masters of painting. On the left wall, there is a gigantic fresco depicting St. Christopher, a Romanesque-Byzantine work of the late thirteenth century. On the sails of the vault of the main chapel of the apse are the Four Evangelists, the Stigmata of St. Francis, a Madonna with Child and Adam, from the fourteenth-century Venetian-Emilian school, probably the work of a pupil of Tommaso da Modena. In the first chapel on the left (Giacomelli chapel) there is a work by Tommaso da Modena, the fresco of the Madonna with Child and seven saints (1350), a true artistic masterpiece of the church and testimony of the refined Gothic style of the Emilian master then active in city. In the second chapel on the left there is a fresco by the Maestro di Feltro, Madonna and four saints from 1351. The church houses the tombs of some famous people: Pietro Alighieri and Francesca Petrarca the most important. The first, son of Dante Alighieri, was a judge, poet and commentator residing in Verona who died in Treviso during a stay in 1364. The second, daughter of Francesco Petrarca, died in childbirth in 1384. From the church comes masterpice the „Sacred Conversation“ (1480) by Alvise Vivarini, and the „Meeting of Joachim and Anna with St. Louis IX and Santa Libera“ by Carpaccio today in the Gallerie dell'Accademia in Venice.
