  • GreenPlace in Quarto d’Altino: Building a Green and Smart Hub of Archaeology, Nature and Community

    A European project for greener and more participatory cities


    GreenPlace is a European project under the URBACT programme, involving cities committed to developing more sustainable, inclusive, and participatory local policies, starting from one key element: the regeneration of green public spaces. Quarto d’Altino is taking part in GreenPlace with an ambitious yet deeply grounded challenge — to bring new life to the historic village of Altino and reconnect it to its urban, rural, and lagoon surroundings through an integrated, green, and smart development model.
    Through the project Green & Smart Altinum Hub, the Municipality aims to transform Altino into a multifunctional hub where culture, nature, soft mobility, and social innovation converge to create new opportunities for residents, visitors, and local businesses.
