Itinerary

Scrovegni Chapel

A small church is hiding a monumental treasure. The Scrovegni Chapel stands within the area of the Roman amphitheatre in Padua. The façade itself is built on the basis of an important Roman building, traces of which remain today. Inside you'll find the amazin paintings by Mr Giotto itself! Ticket is not included (16€)

20 minutes
Chiesa degli Eremitani - World Heritage Site

The Church of the Eremitani was erected as the Church of Saints Philip and James between 1260 and 1306 for the Eremitan friars of St Augustine. During the 14th century, it became one of the most important churches in Padua and was embellished with the works of the greatest artists active in the city, such as Andrea Mantegna and Guariento.

20 minutes
N/A

An institution in the city of Padua and a must do when you come here! I recommend a short visit to everyone and if you want, you can also consume their ‘Caffè Pedrocchi’: a drink that combines espresso coffee, cocoa, milk and mint syrup!

25 minutes
Piazza dei Signori

One of the city’s many (and beautiful) squares! So called because here stood the “Palazzo della Signoria”, or “Palace of the Carraresi”, who were the Lords of Padua from 1318 to 1405.

20 minutes
Cathedral Basilica of Santa Maria Assunta

Dedicated to Saint Mary of the Assumption, it took its present form thanks to the architect Andrea da Valle, following a design by Michelangelo Buonarroti ( the famous Michelangelo! ) dating back to 1551.

20 minutes
Piazza delle Erbe

For centuries this square was the ‘commercial centre’ of the city. Unlike the nearby Piazza dei Signori where the more ‘institutional’ celebrations were held, Piazza delle Erbe was home to the more popular festivities. The imposing Palazzo della Ragione overlooks the square.

15 minutes
Palazzo Bo

The Studium Patavinum, i.e. the University of Padua, today one of the most popular universities in Italy, was founded in 1222 to accommodate students who had moved away from the Alma Mater in Bologna, considered too controlled by the Church. We'll find this into the Palazzo Bo!

20 minutes
Basilica of St. Anthony

The “Basilica del Santo” is one of the most visited sanctuaries in the world. A treasure chest that also houses the remains of Saint Anthony of Padua, the Saint par excellence.

25 minutes
Prato Della Valle

A great boast for the city of Padua! With an area of 88620 m², it is the second largest square in Europe, second only to Moscow’s Red Square.

20 minutes

A great excursion where you won't get bored

Published on Jan, 2025

We really enjoyed the tour, we were very inspired by the history and additional facts. Also, the map, which could be added to Google Maps, helped us navigate. Only thanks to this we did not get lost...:-) I would like to thank the guide separately for the tips and advice. Thanks to this, it felt like it was not just a retelling of facts and stories.
