Pordenon

Zaradi palač s freskami, ki krasijo zgodovinsko središče, se ga je prijel vzdevek "poslikano mesto". Pordenun je pomembno kulturno središče z dinamično umetniško, glasbeno, literarno in mednarodno produkcijo.

The painted city: this is how Pordenone is called because of the many frescoed buildings lining the main road through the town’s old centre. 

But the past is only in its look. Today, Pordenone is a welcoming town ready to face present and future challenges. Dynamism and creativity emerge in the town’s music and literature and its many international events that have made Pordenone a rich and original cultural destination.

The heart of the city is full of cafés, cake shops and elegant boutiques, ideal for a stroll to take in some shopping with an art-driven aspect. In fact Pordenone was the birthplace of the great Renaissance painter Giovanni Antonio de Sacchis, better known as Il Pordenone. His masterpieces may be admired in the Duomo di San Marco and in the lovely Civic Art Museum.

For nature lovers, a short walk from the town centre leads to the Noncello river, an oasis of peace and quiet.
