An agricultural
centre situated,

at the third mile
from old Aquileia,
it also preserves the Anfora
Canal to witness its Roman
origin. In the neighbourhood
of S. Martino,

the small church dedicated to
the Saint (12th-18th
centuries), enclosed in a ring
of walls, still preserves
important frescoed cycles:
the early 16th-century
Coronation of the Virgin,
Angels and Fathers of the
Church in the apse (though
difficult to attribute), and a
group of Saints on the
northern wall probably
dating to the year 1000.
Close to the church is an
interesting architectural
complex, probably a
monastery. In Terzo also
Palazzo Vianelli
(18th cent.), now housing the
Town Hall, and the large
Parish church dedicated to
San Biagio (19th cent.) in
whose apse Sebastiano Santi
frescoed his Trinity with
Choirs of Angels (1788-
1866) may be visited.

simply natural springs
often originate,
contributing to shaping the...go
