Hotel Lorenzago di Cadore

Lorenzago di Cadore, tourist resort where Pope John Paul II used to spend his holidays

The history of this Lorenzago di Cadore is linked to that of the Passo della Mauria, an important connection between the Veneto and the Friuli regions. This route has been used since the Neolithic Age; it also witnessed the Cadore people's strenuous opposition to the Austrians in 1848. Lorenzago lies on a green tableland and overlooks the lake of Centro Cadore and the confluence between the Mauria Valley and the river Piave.
