The Regional Forest of Conte Ceconi

The Regional Forest of Conte Ceconi

Among the properties of Count Giacomo Ceconi there was also a forest. His heirs donated it to the Ente friulano di Economia Montana in 1940 and it then passed to the Autonomous Region of Friuli Venezia Giulia. One of the entrances to the forest is located near the Ceconi Castle.

Since 2004 it has been managed according to PEFC certification, which attests to its sustainability. Since 2007, about 90% of the surface area, about 1,000 hectares, has been subject to the preservation of the natural environment with wilderness areas, where human intervention is excluded or reduced to a minimum.

The beech forest dominates here, but there are many other species. Many animals live here, such as chamois, deer, roe deer, martens, badgers, alpine hares and many birds, including the golden eagle.

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.

War Memorial

In Malnisio, the War Memorial with the solemn statue representing Italy was inaugurated on 4 November 1925 in the square in front of the church, but it was not completed until 1933. To make room for this work, the village fountain was moved.
