Known simply as
Valle until 1867, it was a
castrum of the
Romans, who also had a road built here to connect to the
Via Claudia Augusta Altinate.
Titian, the painter, was born here around 1477. During the
War of the League of Cambrai, in 1508, it was the seat of a
battle of the
Venetians and the
Cadorines against the
Habsburg Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I. == International relations ==
