Description
District of Farra di Soligo, where the church Col San Martino is located is in the province of Treviso, Col San Martino. The area is surrounded by lush green hills, covered with neat rows of vines, which produce an excellent Prosecco.
The district is crossed by the stream Raboso and is bordered by "palù", a marshy area typical of the province of Treviso. The local economy depends on animal breeding and dairy products, and fine wine production.
Remains in the area indicate, the area has been inhabited since Prehistoric times, dating back to the Roman civilization and colonization of the Roman Empire. In the Middle Ages, the main centre developed around a small fortress, built on the summit of a hill.
Originally the village of Collalto owned the church. For a brief period in the XIII century, ownership was assigned to a local noble family, Col San Martino, but soon after returned to the Collalto. Subsequently the control over the territory was granted to the Ramponi of Feltre, and later, like most of the lands of the Treviso area was under the domain of the Venetian Serenissima Republic from the XIV century until the age of Napoleon.
The Church of San Martino, was originally built around year 1000, it was rebuilt in 1927 after suffering damage during World War II. Today, it features an octagonal floor plan.
The House of Collalto is an old and distinguished Austro-Italian noble house of Lombard origin, named after their seat at Collalto in Susegana, now in the Province of Treviso in Italy. Throughout its history, the house had their possessions in Italy, Austria and Moravia.
