At Cividale del Friuli (Ud), an hour’s drive by car (56 km), you can visit the small Lombard Temple which is a magnificent testimony of Early-Middle Age architecture. Access is from piazza San Biagio along a suspended walkway which offers a delightful scenic view on the River Natisone like that from the legendary Ponte del Diavolo (Devil’s Bridge) which stands at a height of 22.5 m and dates from 1440. The treasure of the Cathedral, the nearby Christian Museum and the Santa Maria monastery in Valle, are also worth visiting. For information click on www.tempiettolongobardo.it. Every July, Cividale welcomes the Mittelfest, an important international art event of theatre and music performances from Central Europe. The calendar of performances is available on www.mittelfest.org.
