The best known
building in
Ligosullo, a small
village on the road
connecting Treppo
Carnico to Paularo, is no
doubt Castle Valdajer, a
very peculiar construction
now turned into a hotel,
reminiscent, in its previous
architectural forms, of the
late 19th-century eclectic
style. The Castle, whose
origins may be dated to the
15th century, was rebuilt in
1880 when it acquired

its
present look. Destroyed by
a fire set during the 1917
retreat of the Italian troops,
it was then restructured at
first by Counts Craigher,
then by its present-day
owners. In the 18th-century
parish church of S. Nicoḷ
the wooden high altar is
attributable to Girolamo
Comuzzo and contains a
painting by Giorgio
Monsuro from San
Daniele (Virgin with Child
and SS. Nicoḷ and
Bartolomeo, 1661).
The vault is decorated
with frescoes by local
painter Giovanni Moro
(20th cent.).
