Sesto Al Reghena

Sesto Al Reghena combines historical heritage with a landscape that can be explored on foot and by bicycle. When planning your trip, you can therefore focus on different aspects: religious and archaeological history, medieval architecture, or observing nature in meadows and around bodies of water.

Culture between the Abbey and Medieval Architecture

Those interested in religious history will find a long-standing point of reference in the Benedictine Abbey of Santa Maria in Sylvis. The abbey was founded in the first half of the 8th century. The cultural attractions also include the “Urna di Sant'Anastasia,” which preserves the relics of the saint.

The “Sant'Andrea” archaeological site south of the basilica traces the ground plan of the ancient Church of Sant'Andrea. In Sesto Al Reghena, you will therefore encounter different forms of historical heritage: the history of a Benedictine abbey, the preservation of relics, and the visible reconstruction of an ancient church building. The “Area dei Mulini di Stalis” complex complements this picture as a relatively well-preserved example of medieval mill architecture.

Meadows, Water and Nature Experiences

The Prati Burovich offer a distinctly different way to experience the area. They are stable meadows that have not been cultivated for centuries. The Prati Burovich can be crossed on foot or by bicycle. If you enjoy combining your trip with outdoor activities, this landscape can therefore be planned as a separate focus.

Walks and birdwatching are possible at Lago delle Premarine. The lake is a renaturalized quarry lake and thus adds another type of landscape to the range of travel options. Here, you can choose between a stay focused on cultural history and a nature experience among meadows and water, without making either interest dependent on the other.
