Introducing Udine

With its engaging Renaissance core and Romanesque-Gothic cathedral, Udine is the region’s most Italianate city. The Renaissance master Giambattista Tiepolo lived here for years, leaving various works behind. Although this busy centre inherited something of the Italo-Slav-Germanic mix present in other parts of the region, the town’s identity is predominantly Friulian (note the bilingual street signs). Four centuries of Venetian rule left the deepest ‘foreign’ traces in the city’s appearance.
