CERCIVENTO: A WALK AMONG ART, HISTORY AND NATURE

51

The approximately 8 km route can be travelled

on foot or by bicycle. It winds on paved and

dirt roads and is suitable for everybody. It

starts in the “Plan da Farie” an area near the

ancient forge museum “Farie di Checo” (1).

Passing through the village, you can admire

photoceramic reproductions of masterpieces

from the history of art on the facades of the

houses: from works by Tiepolo to Raffaello,

from Rembrandt to Caravaggio (via della

Misericordia).

In the countryside, known as “Taviele”, you can

find fields of officinal herbs (2) still cultivated

today according to ancient traditions. Along

the route you can see the mosaic works (via

della Fede) made by Father Marko Ivan Rupnik.

In Cercivento di Sopra there are paintings

representing the life of Mary (via di Maria),

ceramic reproductions of Raffaello’s

Transfiguration and Michelangelo’s Last

Judgment. These works are inserted in a

context of courtyards and historic houses (3)

dating back to 1600. Continuing your walk, you

will find yourself in front of the Crist di Tof (4),

an ancient cross dating back to 1754, which,

in the past, marked a resting point during

religious processions coming from the hamlets.

The route continues towards the hamlet of

“Vidâl” up to the public wash house (5); here

you can choose whether to continue or return

to the starting point.

The second part of the route, unpaved along

the forest track, is completely immersed in

nature and is suitable for sportsmen, families

or less experienced hikers. Along the way, there

is a farm and experimental biodynamic apiary

(6), both of which can be visited. Climbing down

the road of Mount Tenchia, near the cemetery,

you can see the monument (7) erected in

memory of the four soldiers of the Alpine Army

Corps who were executed on 1 July 1916.

Once you reach Piazza della Pieve (8), you

can admire the mosaics made by the Mosaic

School of Spilimbergo (History of Salvation)

and, on one side, the vicarage Casa Canonica,

dating back to the early 1600 s , whose vaults

have recently been frescoed by Maestro Paolo

Orlando.
