Sant’Antonio Abate Sanctuary of Villiago

The Sant’Antonio Abate Sanctuary is located on a ridge overlooking the Sedico plain to the north-west. Originally the church was dedicated to San Girolamo, but in the pastoral visit of 1883 it is referred to as Sant'Antonio abate. Inside, the image object of veneration is an altarpiece that presents the Virgin and Child with St. Jerome and St. Anthony by Francesco Frigimelica "the Elder" (1570-post 1646). Inside, the building has a single nave structure with an altar placed inside a semicircular chapel. It has not undergone significant changes over time apart from minor restoration works.

With its ups and downs, the Valbelluna ring allows you to also approach villages like this, located between the Piave and the slopes of the Belluno Dolomites. Path very eat and drink, but certainly very varied and that gives its landscape satisfactions.

Villiago, a very small town where it is a must to cycle by to admire the beauty of Valbelluna!
