Grado's Old Town, Fishing Port & Shopping District

Grado's Old Town, dating back to Roman times, is the oldest area of the island and one of the best preserved medieval towns anywhere in northeastern Italy. At the heart of the island, the Old Town offers a variety of restaurants, cafes, and scenic piazzas. At the center are two celebrated and ancient churches. Grado's historic Patriarchal Basilica, dedicated in AD 579 to Santa Euphemia, is still the main church of the Gradese.

Nearby, the Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute, also dating from the sixth century, is now the scene of summer evening concerts, poetry readings and other activities. The main port of Grado, in the center of the town, has long been the repository of Grado's spirit. Though the Old Port today has made room for large sailboats, it is still the home of Grado's rustic fisherman, who depart at night and arrive with their catch early in the morning. At the center of Grado's shopping district are three tree-lined streets, closed to traffic, with many shops and elegant boutiques, as well as numerous cafes, wine bars, restaurants and pizzerias.
