Among civil
buildings in
Remanzacco the
unusual house fortress
of Bergum
is definitely notable, with
Gothic-style stone motifs and
fragments of Renaissance frescoes, but the real

gem in
the municipality is the villa of
Counts della Torre
Valsassina at Ziracco, with
central courtyard closed by
low buildings and rustic side
courtyards which are unique
in Friuli, and its long front on
the square and grand staircase
on the internal façade. Inside,
three rooms have late 1700s
frescoes by Andrea Urbani and
early 1800s ones by Domenico
Paghini. Ziracco is a rural
neighbourhood with an ancient
house characterized by an
open gallery and small belfry
on the roof. At Remanzacco,
the parish church of
S. Giovanni Battista has two
remarkable altarpieces by
Francesco Chiarottini (Virgin
with Child and Saints;
St. Helen finds the Cross)
dated 1774 and a wooden
altar by Giovanni Martini
coming from the cemetery
church of S. Stefano.
