Farra d'Isonzo

The name of Farra d'Isonzo derives from its Longobard origins, but it certainly was inhabited since the Roman times.

Because of its position, it was in the centre of important events from the Middle Ages to World War I, bearing Hungarian and Turkish incursions, too.

Placed on a plain area, including the last ramifications of the Collio, this territory is today well known for its wine production.

In the past it founded its economy on the silk-worm breeding, thank to a big "Filatoio" that, built in 1724, worked till the last century.
