Colceresa

 

Bordering the famous town of Bassano del Grappa, Cassola rests on the fertile plains stretching out from the foothills of the majestic Monte Grappa massif. With history tracing back to 1085, its name echoes the ancient “Casasola” (solitary house), a poetic nod to a time when the village was entirely enveloped by deep forests.

Today, the municipality beautifully contrasts its bustling, modern northern hub of San Giuseppe with its peaceful, less urbanized historic core to the south. Art lovers will find true hidden gems here: the Church of San Marco houses a stunning 1573 altarpiece by Renaissance master Jacopo Da Ponte, while the Church of San Zeno treasures timeless works from the Bassano school and a striking 1910 fresco by Noè Bordignon.
