　　This unusual, soaring Gothic structure dates to the 13th and 14th centuries, although much of what you see today was rebuilt after devastating air strikes in WWII. Inside, frescoes by Tommaso da Modena line the walls, depicting important Dominicans, whose order still inhabit the seminary next door. Other frescoes by Renaissance talent Lorenzo Lotto line the Cappella Oniga.

Must-see attractions
Museo Luigi Bailo
The Veneto
　　The contemporary white marmorino entrance to Treviso’s modern-art museum is a sign of good things to come. Namely, a stunningly good 20th-century art collection, featuring portraits by Luigi Serena, Lino Selvatico and Bepi Fabiano, sculpture by underappreciated talents like Ottone Zorlini, and the largest collection of works by Arturo Martini....
Chiesa di Santa Lucia

Fontana delle Tette
The Veneto

Essentially created as a free wine dispenser (white wine flowed from one breast, red from the other) for the celebrating masses during autumn wine festivals, it...

Museo Collezione Salce
