The motte of Treville is a hill, created by man in ancient times.
Today, nature has taken over with plants, flowers and trees. In the past there was an ancient medieval castle, but important archaeological finds from the Roman era have been brought to light through archaeological excavations.
An open place, located in a small village near Castelfranco Veneto. Located west of the church of San Daniele. It is a truncated cone-shaped artefact with an embankment. The motte was a safe place to build the castle of the Lord of Camposampiero, dating back to the eleventh century, but demolished at the behest of the Venetian Republic, ruler of Castelfranco and the mainland from the fourteenth to the eighteenth century.
These are the remains of the feudal castle widely documented in the archival sources and medieval literature of the Treviso area. The motte was the centre of the castle of Treville and the dongione (keep), residence of the gastaldo dei da Camposampiero, was installed on it.
