Gradisca d'Isonzo

Curiosity

The evolution of the village

Many of the buildings in Gradisca incorporate earlier houses. This also holds true for the cathedral, dedicated to the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul, featuring a beautiful Baroque façade. The cathedral was created following significant structural redevelopment and incorporates the chapel of St Anne, decorated with elegant stuccos dating to the late-17th century. The chapel, also known as Torriana as the noble family going by this name partook in religious celebrations here, houses the monumental sepulchre of Nicolò II della Torre.
