Maniago Castle is a 12th-century military structure located on the slopes of Mount Jôf, dominating the town. It was built to resolve the problems facing the Patriarchate of Aquileia following the donation of its lands to Patriarch Rodoaldo by Emperor Otto II. The distance between the estates and Aquileia made their administration difficult, especially with the formation of the large fiefdom of Spilimbergo, the consolidation of the Sestensi holdings in the Cellina Valley, those of Millstatt Abbey in the territory of Maniago Libero, and the settlement of the Polcenigo family in Mizza. Therefore, the construction of a castle was necessary, and above all, a "custoria," or "residence fiefdom." During the Turkish invasion of 1467, the walls were reinforced, but after being abandoned in the early 16th century and the earthquakes of 1511 and 1575, the castle began to decline. In 1630, it finally fell into disuse. https://www.comune.maniago.pn.it/it/vivere-il-comune-221534/luoghi-221535/il-castello-239607

The little church, now a destination for hikers and devotees, was once an indispensable shelter for those who went to the mountains to make hay and firewood, as well as a rest and prayer station for wayfarers walking along the ancient road of Forcella La Croce. The small oratory was built in the heart of the Maniagolibero mountain, in a clearing located halfway between the village itself and Forcella Crous. In the 1820s it was subjected to heavy renovation by Gio Batta Marocco. The little church was restored by the A.N.A., Maniago section, in 1989. It has a simple gabled layout extended on the façade by the portico supported by a large pillar. Above the entrance to the portico is a statuette depicting Saint Christopher. You enter the small, bare rectangular hall by climbing two steps and crossing the simple arched door crowned by a small wooden aedicule with a recently made crucified Christ. A niche in the back wall houses the statuette of Saint Anthony, while two small windows opened in the side walls provide light to the interior.

Mount Jôuf is a peak in the Carnic Prealps that rises behind the city of Maniago. This name, quite common in the mountain environment, literally translates to "yoke" (long and rounded mountain summit). The name appears for the first time in 1286, in the Municipal Archives of Maniago, and today it is written in various ways including: Iouf, Jouf, Jôf, Iof and Jof. Its main peak, an enchanting grassy clearing at 1,224 m, in a panoramic position on the Friulian plain, is recognizable by a modest flag with a rudimentary bench. In reality there is also a lower peak, traditionally recognized, located at 1,203 m and reachable from the saddle below. Here there is a large cross with a summit book. Nearby there is a meteorological station that reduces the view.
