Padua

Why go

Eight religious and secular complexes in the walled centre hold fresco cycles painted across the fourteenth century. Start with the Scrovegni Chapel, then use the arcaded streets and squares to connect other sites. The walk shows how painting and civic life share the same historic city.

What to look for

• The Scrovegni Chapel is a key fresco site.
• Other fourteenth-century fresco cycles occupy buildings across the walled centre.
• Arcaded streets open onto large public squares.

Useful to know

• Choose your fresco interiors first, then link them with a walk through the centre.
• Check current entry arrangements for the Scrovegni Chapel and other interiors.
