Touristic Guide and map of PREPOTTO in Friuli region
   
The territory of the Prepotto municipal district represents one of the pearls of the landscape and the culture of the Friuli region, and particularly of the Natisone Valleys, of which constitutes the southern part.
   
    The fame of Prepotto comes above all from the Sanctuary-fortress of Castelmonte (where every year dozens of thousand of pilgrims arrive to venerate the Black Virgin) and from the Schioppettino red wine, one of the most appreciate native friulian wines, just typical of this ground.
  But in Prepotto they have a great cultural interest also some typical hamlets and several ancient chapels scattered on the hills. There is also a castle.
 Prepotto is located at 7 km South-East from Cividale del Friuli and 7 km from Corno di Rosazzo.
  The village extends along the North-West bank of the Judrio torrent, facing the Slovenija and the Dolegna del Collio, municipal district of the Goriza province, located on the South-East bank.
  The territory is characterized at South by low hills, covered of vineyards, and by higher hills, rich of woods, at North.
Into details, the historical buildings of Prepotto are:
- the Sanctuary-fortress of Castelmonte: it is a fortified monastery on the highest point (610 metres a.s.l.) of the piedmont crest starting from Cividale and continuing towards the Slovenija. In the actual shape it is not less than 800 years old, because it has not been damaged since 1175 a.C. There is venerated a Black Virgin, traditional portrayal of Virgin Mary in the Middle-Europe

  You can admire the valley and the hills of Prepotto from the ‘pulpit’ of San Giovanni (chapel of 1500) over Bordon hamlet; from Mernicco on the hill of parish church and, at last, from higher Scriò (both hamlets of Dolegna del Collio); only the valley, whole, is observable from S.Spirito chapel over Albana

Il vino rosso Schioppettino

  The Schioppettino red wine is a robust red wine, to drink at least two years old.
  It has a particular taste of blackberry and bilberry.
  The Schioppettino has its ideal habitat in the ground of Prepotto, therefore it has special production specifications and the promotion of the local Producers Association (see www.schioppettinodiprepotto.it).
  Obviously in Prepotto there are produced also the other typical wines of Colli Orientali del Friuli.
