Extract from the Cividale del Friuli Travel Guides:
Lying only 17km east of Udine and connected to it by train and bus,
CIVIDALE DEL FRIULI
is a gem of a town, much prized by the Friulani but pretty well unknown to outsiders. It was founded in 50 BC by Julius Caesar where the Natisone Valley opens into the plain, and in the sixth century became the capital of the first Lombard duchy. In the eighth century the Patriarch of Aquileia moved here, inaugurating Cividale's most prosperous period.
