Cividale del Friuli is a true treasure chest of invaluable treasures. Since 2008, it has been recognized as a Bandiera Arancione by the Touring Club Italiano and, since 2025, it has been included among the Borghi più Belli d’Italia (i.e. The most beautiful village in Italy). The city welcomes visitors with its testimonies of a millenary history, proud of its most precious jewels, including the serial site “I Longobardi in Italia. I luoghi del potere (568-774 d.C.)”, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2011.

In Cividale, you can follow the traces of the Lombard by visiting the Monastery of Santa Maria in Valle and the famous Tempietto Longobardo, known worldwide for its stunning stuccoes. Other places of great importance are the Museo Cristiano and the Tesoro del Duomo, which houses the Baptistery of Callisto and the Ara of Ratchis, and the National Archaeological Museum, which displays artifacts that tell the story of the daily life of this ancient and extraordinary people.

In addition to these prestigious sites, there are other museum realities that offer visitors an interpretation of Cividale's cultural heritage and the city's role as a promoter of culture. Among these are the Centro Internazionale Vittorio Podrecca – Maria Signorelli, dedicated to puppet theater, the Galleria Famiglia De Martiis, recently inaugurated and showcasing a collection of modern and contemporary art, and the Museum dedicated to the Great War (1915-1918), which will soon reopen after expansion works.
