Ravascletto

Characterizing the charming appearance of Ravascletto are mainly the typical Carnia houses that are encountered numerous along the hamlets and villages of the town. Examples of these traditional and ancient dwellings are the Coulada, Baldisar and de Stalis houses. In the hamlet of Zovello, on the other hand, it is worth seeing the Church of St. Andrew, a religious building of medieval origin that is very interesting and in whose interior some painted panels and wooden statues stand out. Other historically interesting religious buildings are the Church of St. John in the hamlet of Salars, the small Church of the Holy Spirit near the hamlet of Som la Vila, and the Church of St. Matthew in the hamlet of Stalis, the latter with two large canvases and some valuable paintings from the 1500s inside.

In addition to several fascinating examples of architecture and religious buildings, the hamlet of Ravascletto boasts an enormous natural heritage. A high percentage of the territory is wooded, with spruce trees giving the landscape a very special and striking image in the winter season.
