Fountains

Fountains: a central element of life in the past

Until the arrival of water in the home, fountains were a central element in daily life: they were places of aggregation, where people took their livestock to water and fetched water for cooking and washing. In Clauzetto, sixteen fountains have been recovered thanks to the project The rediscovered itineraries in the Carnic Pre-Alps, carried out with the support of the European Union. These include the Pucìt, built in 1907 and used as a washhouse, the fountain of Triviât, dating back to 1910, and that of Nujaruç, with a hexagonal base, built in 1915. Centrally located, it was mainly used for domestic purposes.

Today, surrounded by benches and overlooking the plain, it represents a new meeting point for those who live in and visit Clauzetto.

Archaeological Museum in Palazzo Toffol

The area in which Montereale Valcellina stands has been inhabited for at least three thousand years: the oldest evidence of human settlements dates back to the 14th century B.C., the so-called Bronze Age. Some swords that have re-emerged from the gravel of the Cellina date back to this period, perhaps of a votive nature, linked to the cult of the torrent or of a deity linked to water.

The old Valcellina road

Until 1906, the Valcellina, with the municipalities of Andreis, Barcis, Claut, Cimolais and Erto, which in the 19th century had a total of ten thousand inhabitants, remained isolated due to the absence of roads.
