Located on the banks of the Tagliamento river, Spilimbergo is one of the most beautiful and interesting art cities in Friuli Venezia Giulia. 
It is a village of ancient origins, which grew primarily during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. The centre, retaining its original medieval structure, has undergone continuous restoration work to enhance the works of artists who have succeeded each other over the centuries, including Giovanni Antonio de’ Sacchis, also known as "il Pordenone", and Giovanni Antonio Pilacorte. The splendour of the past comes to life every year in August with the Historical Re-enactment of the Macia, named after an ancient unit of measurement used for fabrics also reproduced on a palazzo in Piazza del Duomo.
