Muli, cavalli e draghi: Belluno’s mysterious side, a theatrical tour on Saturday 24 October

On Saturday 24 October 2026, at 4:30 pm, Belluno reveals its mysterious side with “Muli, cavalli e draghi” (Mules, horses and dragons), a theatrical guided tour of about two and a half hours through the historic centre. It is a stop on the 18th edition of Veneto Spettacoli di Mistero, the festival promoted by the Veneto Region and staged by UNPLI Veneto with the local Pro Loco associations.
The route
The walking show follows three animals woven into the city’s history: the mule, faithful companion of the Alpini mountain troops; the horse of Saint Martin, Belluno’s patron saint; and the two dragons of the city’s coat of arms. History, legends of the saints and folk tales come together, and it is suitable for families too.
