Via Cavour, via Manin, piazza Patriarcato, via Treppo, piazza I° Maggio, via Pracchiuso, via Liruti

From Piazza Libertà, following it until we reach the old via Manin, on which the XVIth-century Palazzo Caimo-Dragoni and Palazzo Mantica, headquarters of the Philological Society of Friuli, are located.

The street ends at Porta Manin, with the beautiful Torre di San Bartolomeo (Tower), part of the third circle of town walls and therefore dating back to the XIIIth century.

We enter piazza Patriarcato where the Chiesa di Sant'Antonio Abate (Church), transformed in the XVIIIth century by the architect Giorgio Massari, is located.

To the right of the church rises Palazzo Arcivescovile, the definitive structure of which dates back to 1707/8, work of the architect Domenico Rossi.

 

Leaving the Palazzo we reach Palazzo Antonini-Belgrado (XVIIth century), now headquarters of the provincial administration of Udine.

From the square we turn onto via Treppo, where we see the building of the former court of justice, XVIIth-century headquarters of the town Seminary, Palazzo della Porta, late XVIIth-century and still endowed with a private chapel embellished with frescos by Quaglio, and the XVIth-century Palazzo Ottelio.

We then proceed to the historic Piazza I Maggio, where the Santuario della Beata Vergine delle Grazie (Sanctuary) is located with its adjacent cloister, a cult building documented since the XIVth century.

Leaving the church,we proceed on via Pracchiuso and via Liruti, where we can see the splendid XVIIIth-century façade of Palazzo Agricola and the XVIth-century Palazzo Liruti
