The Caglieron Caves, located in Breda di Fregona, are a complex of cavities, part of which are of artificial origin and part of natural origin.

The natural cavity is a deep gorge carved by the Caglieron torrent on alternating layers of limestone conglomerate, sandstone and marl from the Middle Miocene. There are numerous waterfalls, several meters high, with large potholes at the base. On the walls of the gorge there are large artificial cavities, obtained with the extraction of sandstone, the typical "pietra dolza" (soft stone). The mining activity, which dates back to 1500 and perhaps even earlier, provided the material for the construction of jambs, architraves…, as can still be seen on the old houses and palaces of Vittorio Veneto and its surroundings.
