The town is home of a local network of ceramic industries.

The name of the town comes from the antique Italian nove, in the meaning of "new". As matter of fact, the lands where the town is located were considered new because of the lowering of the level of the Brenta. The lowering of the river revealed soft lands rich of clay. The first artisans of the area started using the clay for the production of pottery.

The town have a beautiful ceramic museum with a Pablo Picasso gallipot and others importants pieces of the 18 and 19 century

Nove is twinned with:

gollark: Well, I realized that ZIP did basically the same thing a while ago, but TARs are annoying as they don't support random access.
gollark: Right now I think I have a combination of just `rsync`ing entire folders to a disk for big incompressible stuff, which is suboptimal, and sqlars for other things, but none of this is actually incremental backup capable, which is bee.
gollark: I might actually implement a simpler version of the same concept (no deduplication) so that I can finally have good sensible to use backups.
gollark: Anyway, as designing your own binary format and whatever is isomorphic to a few bee, osmarksßsqlitearchives™ are a great* idea with no** flaws.
gollark: Due to English.
