Holiday Apartment in Povegliano: History, Landscapes and Trails

Anyone looking for a holiday apartment in Povegliano will find a place whose charms unfold through history, architecture, wine and the Veneto countryside. Between early ecclesiastical traces, a historic airfield and a route through the fields, a varied picture emerges for days when you would like to combine culture and activity. When choosing your location, the key question is whether historic sights, landscape experiences or a combination of both should be the main focus.

History and Architecture in Povegliano

According to tradition, after floods of the Piave in the Middle Ages, the inhabitants moved to the area of alta de Pojan. The Pieve di S. Maria is said to have been established there between the 6th and 7th centuries. Another historical feature is the Campo di volo di Povegliano airfield from the First World War. It extended across the areas of Povegliano, Arcade and Villorba; Hangar No. 7 was located within the municipality of Povegliano.

Palazzo Micheli, Sartorello is located in Povegliano. Villa Lanza di Casalanza is located in Camalò in Povegliano, and Villa Genovese in Santandrà in Povegliano. The surrounding area of Povegliano also includes the Palazzon palace, the Chiave di volta snc museum, the Museo Etnografico Provinciale Case Piavone and Castello San Salvatore. In Santandrà, the Chiesa di Sant'Andrea Apostolo was built towards the end of the 17th century; its single-nave interior has four side altars.

A Walk Through the Veneto Countryside

The Passeggiata da Santandrà a Camalò route passes through the Veneto countryside, with corn and wheat fields, and offers views of the Treviso Pre-Alps. For a section of approximately 1.5 kilometres, it follows a shared cycle and pedestrian path. The route is fully exposed to the sun; using it on hot summer days is not recommended.

The Stele della Madonna stands along the route between Santandrà and Camalò. It was erected in the early 1950s in thanksgiving for protecting the area from incursions by the Nazi fascists during the Second World War. The surrounding area of Povegliano also includes Colesel Val dell'Acqua, Croda della Spia and the natural arch Porta San Tommaso. Monte Moncader is located in the wider regional area around Povegliano.

Wine and Personal Day Planning

From 24 April to 11 May 2025, Camalò was associated with the 49th Mostra dei Vini Triveneti. When choosing your holiday apartment, you can incorporate such different priorities into your planning: the historic buildings and museums lend themselves to cultural discoveries, while the route between Santandrà and Camalò offers a countryside walk with clear exposure to the sun. This allows you to take your preferred mix of sightseeing, activity and interest in regional wine into account when planning your holiday days, without having to turn the individual experiences into one uniform programme.
