On 10th February 1910, with the first train departing from Asiago to Piovene Rocchette, the railway station in Asiago was officially opened. Those 22 km of railway became a connection for transportation of goods and people to and from the Plateau.
The station was designed in 1910 by the Venetian architect Guido Sullam. In 1958, when the railway was closed, the station was used as the ticket office for busses.
The station, as well as all the properties of the former Venetian Railways, which also now also includes the area of the ice rink, was purchased in the late ‘70s by the town of Asiago.
In the ‘80s the building of the station was purchased by the Mountain Community to be renovated and became the seat of the “Spettabile Reggenza (Regency) of the 7 Municipalities”. In 1984, renovation works began and lasted three years. According to the decision of the Head of Architectural Heritage of Verona, the architecture of the building was preserved.
