Cortellazzo, Mouth of the Piave and Pine Forest

A small fishing village where history has shaped the landscape and transformed the lives of its inhabitants. A river whose powerful force led people to divert its course in order to protect the precious Venetian Lagoon. A pine forest that serves as the starting point for understanding what this place once was and how it has changed over time.

Together, we’ll hear stories of the sea, traditional fishing practices, and how fishing became one of the main sources of livelihood for the local community. We’ll also step back into the memories of those who lived through the occupation and the tragic events that unfolded during the late spring of 1918, discovering how history and nature have become deeply intertwined in this remarkable landscape.
