Loggia Amulea – Town Hall
What remains of imperial Padua (the S. Lorenzo Roman bridge, the Arena, etc.) is immersed in the medieval web characterizing the old city with its porticoes, squares, Romanic churches
(S. Antonio, S. Sofia, Eremitani) and one of the oldest (1222) and illustrious universities of Europe. But past the narrow medieval streets and beyond the neoclassic Caffè Pedrocchi (1831) by architect Jappelli, lies one of the largest squares in Europe (90,000 sq.m.): Prato della Valle.

Villas and Castles

1. Built in the second half of the 16th century, the villa is a beautiful and untouched example of renaissance architectural balance. The enormous 16th century complex in Palladian style is structured with a central main building which proceeds on both sides into portico wings.
The “Barchesse”
, typical villa's arcaded wings, complete the structure and frame an “Italian” style garden. In the 18th century the main facade underwent restructuring to become what it is today, with enormous half columns in ionic style, lateral loggias with large terraces on top.

Together with the town of Piazzola it forms a single architectonic complex characterised by porticos, irrigation ditches and fish ponds, large courtyards and eighteenth century workshops. To the south the villa faces a large square with a semi-circular portico, while to the north there are 50 hectares of parkland with fish ponds, lakes and tree-lined avenues.
For thirty years the rooms and grounds of Villa Contarini have provided culture, entertainment and nature, and played host to business conferences, private parties and musical and television events.
