      The Mandelli Mill was the largest flour factory in Treviso, the first large industrial plant which marked, in the last quarter of the last century, the transition from an artisanal economy to a real industrial economy. It rises at the confluence of the Storga and the Sile, in Porto di Fiera.

      From the papers preserved in the State Archives of Venice there is evidence of a mill already active in the 15th century. In a subsequent map of the Napoleonic land register, dated 1759, two mills can be seen on the sides of the Storga, one with three wheels and one with two, belonging respectively to Bernardin and F.lli Renier and to the Pietà hospital in Venice. It was in 1876 that Luigi Mandelli had a new "Hungarian system" mill built above the former factories, consisting of a vast building in which wheat was milled for the production of bread and bran flours. The mill had driving power represented by two hydraulic motors, which used the waters of the Storga, two Brown-Boveri electric motors and a reserve steam engine. The milling complex is located in a strategic position. The proximity to the Sile river in fact allowed the transportation of grain by water to Venice and the loading-unloading of the goods took place directly from the boats to the silos. Part of the goods were then also transported with carts and mules, given the proximity of the Callalta road.

      At the beginning of our century the building and the grain warehouses underwent transformations dictated by the renewal of the machinery and the manufacturing process. The complex expanded into several parts, which aggregated around the original nucleus in different periods. To the west of the complex, there is the main villa and some two-storey workers' houses, in good condition and still used. Once the milling activity ceased, the building was used first as a grain warehouse and later as a cocoon dryer. It has been lying in a state of abandonment since the 1990s.

      In October 2023, a maxi urban and real estate redevelopment project for the area was officially unveiled, which will see the birth of a new cutting-edge neighborhood, surrounded by a green area open to the public, homes, restaurants, offices.

        Old walls on the shore. Here, too, it will regain its place over the years.
