Ai Pioppi: the amusement park in the woods that Bruno created, together with his wife, with an inn

Disneyland is another story! We have the most original Luna Park in Italy: it is built entirely with recycling of basic materials, such as Iron and WoodIt extends over 6 square meters of poplar-covered land and offers 40 different types of entertainment.

Il Nervesa di Battaglia Playground, in the province of Treviso, is called «At the Poplars» precisely because of the vegetation in which it is immersed. Its birth has long roots, but the project has never stopped since the late 1960s when Bruno Ferrin, with his wife Marisa, they decided to bet on this adventure. Create a tavern, simple, with genuine cuisine, and combine it with a Playground dedicated to recycling and Do not waste.

Before inventing "Ai Pioppi," Bruno was a yeast salesman, overseeing the entire process, from production to sales, and his days began very early, at dawn. Then the idea for the tavern, surrounded by poplar trees, was born, and to captivate the public, Bruno and Marisa also invented the playground. No electricity, no asbestos, just recycled iron and wood, which they used to make swings and even a centrifuge. Entry is free, and the only obligation is to consume something at Bruno's tavern.
