Bassano del Grappa – Capitale della cultura europea 2029
Bassano del Grappa is an authentic city where heritage and the production of beauty are living drivers of attraction and development. The historic center, made famous by the iconic Ponte Vecchio or degli Alpini, winds between frescoed palaces and squares rich in history, up to the villas dotting the surroundings of the city, in a path that testifies centuries of exchanges between the Alpine area and the Venetian plain.
Located in the heart of the Pedemontana area, Bassano is surrounded by a territory that ranges from the course of the river Brenta to the hills cultivated with olive trees and vineyards up to the Massif del Grappa. Bassano is also the guardian of an artistic heritage of exceptional importance: from the masterpieces of Jacopo Bassano to the sculptures of Canova, passing through Lorenzo Lotto, Artemisia, Tiepolo and Hayez, without forgetting the rich collections of ancient and popular prints of the famous Remondini family, a symbol of art and business.
This legacy is joined by a dynamic and enterprising economic fabric, where the ancient craftsmanship tradition interacts with the excellence of the industrial centres of the territory. It is a unique model of culture and business, ranging from ceramics to distillation to technological research, capable of transforming the know-how of the past into constant innovation, making Bassano a strategic centre of gravity for the entire region.
