Frisanco's main asset (and the
neighbourhood of Poffabro's too)
are the typical rural houses, with
three or four floors, stone pilasters
along the whole height of the house,
balconies and
|
 |
external wooden staircases
connecting the home with the workplace
(the courtyard and barns) as was usual in
bygone times. At Poffabro the church of
San Nicolò has a Neoclassical façade and
contains only the 17th-century Virgin of the
Rosary by Osvaldo Gortanutti, now that
the precious Annunciation and Adoration of
the Eucharist by Francesco Guardi
(18th cent.) has been moved to the Diocesan
Museum in Pordenone.

While the Maniago area has been
marked by the century-old tradition of
knife makers, that has provided the
necessary support to its industrial
growth, Spilimbergo has
had a similar
experience
in the field of
mosaic
creation, as
the local
Mosaic School has
worked for decades at
the highest levels, also
obtaining important
international orders. But
Spilimbergo is...go
