The shrine located at the intersection of via Bordone and via Sant'Antonio in Biancade is a small gem of popular devotion from the Treviso area. Characterized by simple and traditional lines, it features a niche protected by an iron gate that houses the image of the Madonna, a historic place of prayer for the local inhabitants. This structure stands at a crucial junction for the rural traffic of the past: road intersections were indeed considered symbolic places to invoke divine protection for travelers and the surrounding crops. Maintained over the years by the local community to preserve its decorum, the shrine still represents a strong identity element for the neighborhood today, testifying to the persistence of ancient rites linked to the territory, such as the traditional Rogation procession or the recitation of the rosary in May.

Villa Greguol is a historic building located in the center of Zenson di Piave (TV), near the town hall and the church of San Benedetto. A testament to local architecture from the early 1900s, it is also known through vintage postcards and represents a landmark in the landscape area along the Piave river. Located near key places in the town, it is visible along the cycling route that crosses the area. The area of via IV Novembre, where the villa is located, offers a typical view of the local rural panorama with poplars and cultivated fields near the river.

The town of Zenzon is historically relevant for the battles along the Piave front after the retreat from Caporetto in 1917. The Zenson bend was the scene of fierce clashes between the Italian and Austro-Hungarian armies.

Villa Greguol, located in the territory of Zenson di Piave, represents a significant example of a historic residence linked to the tradition of Venetian villas and the agrarian economy of the area. Although the building has suffered the ravages of time and the devastations that characterised the Piave front during the First World War, it still retains the charm of the manor structures of the past. Architecturally, the villa presents sober and elegant lines, integrated into the surrounding rural landscape. Historically, the residence is linked to the Greguol family, who played a relevant role in the social and productive life of the area. Its position, not far from the riverbanks, places it within that system of residences that dot the Trevigiana plain, testifying to a past when the villa was both a centre for land management and a place of representation. Today, the building remains an important piece of the local historical memory of Zenson.

The iron bridge of Quarto d'Altino is a truss metal structure that spans the Sile river, connecting the town center to the hamlet of Musestre in Roncade. This bridge represents a fundamental piece of local industrial archaeology and 20th-century road infrastructure, built to replace the old barge systems and permanently unite the provinces of Venice and Treviso. Characterized by a robust and functional structure, it today allows vehicular and pedestrian traffic at a point in the river where the natural landscape blends with civil architecture. Its metallic aesthetic and the rhythmic sound of cars on its joints make it an iconic and immediately recognizable element for anyone traveling along the banks of the Sile.
