Mogliano Veneto Is the birthplace of the novel writer Giuseppe Berto and the lyric soprano Toti Dal Monte. A Literary award is entitled to Berto and is given every year by a local committee to the best first work written in Italian.
Mogliano is cut in two by a busy street, known as Terraglio, a historical road linking Treviso and Mestre/Venice.
