Precenicco

The most ancient area of the Municipality of Precenicco is the today's village called Titiano.

In it during the roman period there was a building for the pilgrims who walked from Aquileia to the area called Norico.

The name Precenicco comes from Precenius, a latin word that refers to the roman soldier who owned these lands.

In the 13th century in Precenicco a group of the Teutonic Knight was founded.

They helped the German pilgrims to sail from Latisana's harbour towards the Holy Land.

In the Patriarchate's period Precenicco was owned by the Counts of Gorizia and in 1370 it was given to the Jesuit Order.

Precenicco was ruled by the Republic of Venice. Later it was an Austrian possession after the short Napoleon domination.

In 1866 Precenicco became part of the Reign of Italy.
