Nearby the hamlet, where peace reigns and
silence is broken only by the birds' twittering, Saint James
small church shows the interesting fresco "Madonna del Latte".
On the
way to the town square You can find the Canova's collection of
plaster casts (Gypsoteca) and the Temple Avenue (Viale
del Tempio)

A
few steps from the native house of the famous sculptor
Antonio Canova, in the very heart of Possagno, "Tre Grazie"
Bed & Breakfast is waiting for You. Surrounded by the
beautiful Colli Asolani, at the foot of the historical Mount
Grappa, the little town of Possagno is constituted by some
medieval hamlets called "colmèi", where during the Middle
Age social and rural life took place.
The Eighteenth-century house is a typical
example, being flanked by a barn and with a promiscuous
courtyard on the back. The walls are built with the local
stone, following the old tradition of "tajapiére"
(i.e. who cut the building stones).
