Think you’ve seen it all? Wait until you get here. Between Venice and the Dolomites, in the heart of the UNESCO Prosecco Hills, stands CastelBrando — an ancient Roman fortress turned medieval castle, now a hotel with a spa, restaurants, theatres and museums. Reach it by a panoramic funicular rising from the village to the castle walls, revealing breathtaking views over the Cison valley. A place where history meets hospitality, and every detail tells a story centuries old. ✨ #CastelBrando #Veneto
