Conte Collalto
A brief history
Our past is a fabric woven of so many stories… every bit as fascinating as a chivalric epic. Here, man and the land have always lived together in the fullest respect for equilibrium in nature.
The great history book of the Counts of Collalto takes its start as early as 958, when Berengarius, King of Italy, granted to Rambaldo I, ancestor of the Collaltos, the wood of Montello and the Curtis of Lovadina, a vast plain of meadows, pastures, and vineyards at the foot of the hills of Treviso.
Thus began an interweaving of many stories… as intriguing as a chivalric epic poem; from those knights of the Middle Ages, in fact, the Collaltos inherited their spirit of loyalty and respect for the land. For centuries, they served as custodians of their lands, protecting their natural balance and encouraging sapient development of their agricultural, viticultural, and natural resources, all integral components of an all-encompassing, almost-paradisiacal landscape.
