What is "follina"

Follina is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Treviso in the Italian region Veneto, located about northwest of Venice and about northwest of Treviso.

Situated in the heart of the Treviso countryside, on the “Strada del Prosecco” (“Prosecco wine route”), it is a picturesque village immersed in the lush green landscape of Veneto's pre-Alps. It is home to the eponymous abbey, built here in 1170 with the patronage of the Patriarch of Aquileia. St. Charles Borromeo was its abbot.
