Discover Cortina

Nicknamed “the Queen of the Dolomites”, Cortina is undoubtedly the chicest destination in the entire mountain range. The city is a blend of art, nature and culture, with a vibrant social scene, so there is something to suit everyone’s taste.
Nestled in the Dolomiti Superski region, the largest ski area in the world, Cortina is the perfect destination in the winter, since its slopes are considered some the most challenging and panoramic in all the Dolomites. Summer, on the other hand, is the ideal season for hikers and climbers.
The district of Cortina d’Ampezzo is part of the protected area included in the Natural Park of the Dolomites, the mountain range that became a World Heritage Site in 2009.

History and interesting facts

The history of Cortina dates back to the times of the ancient Romans and Barbarians. The city owes its development to the exploitation of forests in the area and the timber trade. Due to its geographical position, it was first annexed to the Republic of Venice and then to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. From the mid-1800s, thanks to the railways that made it accessible to wealthy European travellers, Cortina was transformed into the true capital of the Dolomites and thus, the grand hotels and the first sports and tourist facilities were established.
The First World War was the historical event that had the most significant impact on the region. Subsequently, in the 1930s, it was the favorite destination of the fascist elite.
After the 1956 Olympics, the first of the television era, Cortina slowly began to develop into the town we recognise today.

Events

One of the most important events of the year is the arrival of Saint Nicholas and his angels who, on the night of 5 December, arrive in Piazza Angelo Dibona, right in the heart of the historic centre of the town, bringing gifts for good children; the krampuses, on the other hand, are frightening-looking devils who drag large chains and rattle them noisily to frighten young and old alike, especially those who have been “bad” during the year.
