Situated amoung the hills,  250 meters above sea level and, 70 km. from Venice, Feltre is a charming town rich in history, art and culture. It boasts the important University Department of Modern Languages.
The origins of the town are ancient, retaining many features from Roman times. The city's structure, dominated by the castle and surrounded by walls, still maintains much of the charm of the Middle Ages, but it also graced by the arches and colours of the Renaissance.
It is an ideal place for people who love being in touch with nature, away from the noise and frenzy of everyday life. It is an important centre of artistic, cultural and musical events, reaching their utmost splendour in the ’Palio dei Quartieri’, the ’Historical Procession in Ancient Costumes’ and the ’Arts and Crafts Exhibition’.
In the small shops, which lie concealed under the porticoes, one can find everything this very rich region has to to offer: wine, beans, cheese, flavours from the woods.
Feltre can appropriately be known as ’the small pearl of the Venetian region’ thanks to all its monuments. These include the Museum and  History Library,  the ”Carlo Rizzarda” - Gallery of Modern Art -, numerous churches and the theatre designed by Andrea Palladio. 
One can also experience picturesque walking trails and countless natural beauties.  Nearby the  ’National Park of the Dolomites’, is an authentic paradise for nature lovers.
