Follina is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Treviso in the Italian region Veneto, located about 60 kilometres (37 miles) northwest of Venice and about 35 km (22 mi) northwest of Treviso. It is one of I Borghi più belli d'Italia ("The most beautiful villages of Italy").[3]

Follina is situated in the Treviso countryside, on the "Strada del Prosecco" ("Prosecco wine route"), in the Venetian Prealps. 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.
