PEDESTRIAN MOUNT
Go there and contact
The Mont de Pitié (Monte di Pietà) is a house of local guarantees. Founded by Bishop Nicolò Franco in 1496, he held the current seat two years later, in a building that once housed prisons. Its objective was to prevent good Christians trading with circumcised, that is, Jews, who at that time controlled the trévisan banking system. It is worth a visit to the interesting Cappella dei Adrian (Recteurs chapel), decorated in the th century with frescoes painted on the Toile leather and leather. In the middle of the bottom wall, a Fresque Fiumicelli fresco, the multiplication of breads and fish. Below, paintings by Ludovico Toeput, said el Pozzoserrato, represent episodes of the Old and New Testament. In the adjacent parts you can see the scales used to evaluate the loans, the paintings of Luca Giordano and Sebastiano Ricci, and a painting attributed to Giorgione.
