Our Territory

Breganze, our land

The approach to Breganze takes you through verdant parks, which surround the villas that nestle in the beautiful hills, through which the elegant outline of the bell tower rises. Half-hidden, but just as impressive, are the small medieval buildings and dovecot towers. But it isn’t only the beautiful architecture and landscapes that make Berganze unique; over the last century, Berganze has also become known for its agricultural and manufacturing sectors.
