History and tourism. The territory of Buttrio is, on its north-east side,
characterized by slight hills where wine is grown, while to the south-west opens
into a fertile plain. Recent archeological researches have come up with the fact
that the land has already been inhabited in prehistoric times. The first
documents of Buttrio are going back to about 1000, when for the first time the
name Buttrium is mentioned by the presence of a castle on top of the hill that
overlooks the inhabited area. In the course of the centuries, the castle was
destroyed and rebuilt several times, fought about by the Patriarchs and the
counts of Gorizia.
Today, of the antique castle remains only the small church S. Gervasio of the
14th century; the construction known as Villa Morpurgo goes back to the 18th
century and its little towers to the 19th century. In the following centuries
its territories passed under the Serenissima and suffered the raids of the
Turkey.
Monuments to visit are the Parish Church S. Maria (18th century), the little
church S. Giacomo in Camino (13th century), the noble villa Masieri-Florio (17th
century), and the villa Toppo-Florio (building of the 18th century with a great,
romantic park, rich of beautiful plants and Roman findings; in the Villa the
Civil Museum of Wine can be found: a big collection of tools that serve to grow
grapes and to make wine). And for moments of relax we remember the Regional Fair
of Wine, held during the first days of May with a historic contest of the
barrels, an international marathon, and a soccer tournament for the youth. To
mention also the Granfondo of Friuli (in June), the international base ball
tournament (August), the choir parade Cjantin insieme (February), and the
Singing Festival for children "In Arte Buri" (December).
