Tips from the Community
A very interesting settlement from the 17th century. In the 19th century, Count Alvise Mocenigo decided to establish an "ideal city" under his name. Unlike similar projects, Mocenigo designed a settlement with infrastructure intended to make the community self-sufficient. Therefore, in addition to traditional agriculture (which was expanded by introducing innovative techniques, for example in rice and sugar beet cultivation), he attempted to integrate an industrial sector (particularly the textile industry) that could draw on locally produced resources. The landscape was thus reshaped and reclaimed, with dry areas alternating with moist soils, regulated by an efficient canal system that is still in operation today. In terms of urban planning, buildings were erected for residential purposes (the low farmhouses are still visible today) and for industrial purposes (bakery, rice mill, blast furnace, mill). Cultural activities were also added with the founding of a famous printing press, which operated in Alvisopoli until 1814 and was then moved to Venice. Source: Wikipedia

A great unpaved trail through the forest and along the Lago delle Premarine. The border between Veneto and Friuli-Venezia Giulia runs through the middle of the lake.

Therefore, in addition to traditional agriculture (which was expanded by introducing innovative techniques, for example in rice and sugar beet cultivation), he attempted to integrate an industrial sector (particularly the textile industry) that could draw on locally produced resources. The landscape was thus reshaped and reclaimed, alternating dry areas with humid soils, regulated by an efficient canal system that is still in operation today.

At the point where the old church and cemetery of Rosa once stood, a small hamlet destroyed by the flooding of the Tagliamento in 1851, a box hedge and a stele commemorate the event along route 1
