Pordenone

Thousand years of history in Pordenone

Beautiful Romanesque churches, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque palaces, streets full of historical and artistic treasures: you will find all this and much more in the old city center of Pordenone, called Contrada Maggiore.

A special feature of the city of Pordenone is the river crossing it, the Noncello (in fact the name Pordenone comes from Portus Naonis, because the city developed as a river port), with its beautiful bridges.

 

Pordenone

 

Thanks to the river, the city of Pordenone and its environs have always represented an important center of manufacturing industries: if you are interested in a somewhat different kind of tourism we strongly suggest you visit the old cotton mills dating back to the 19th century, which offer a typical and unique tour of industrial archaeology along the Noncello.
