Padova Urbs picta

Padova Urbs Picta is the official app dedicated to Padua's 14th century frescoes: a journey through time to discover the masterpieces of Giotto and other artists of the fourteenth century that have made the city a treasure trove of art and culture.

Discover the eight UNESCO heritage sites: Giotto and the Scrovegni Chapel, the Church of the Eremitani, the Palazzo della Ragione, the Chapel of the Carraresi Palace, the Cathedral Baptistery, the Basilica and Monastery of the St. Anthony, the Oratories of St. George and St. Michael.

Each place is told through 10 contents: the texts are accompanied by reference images. You can choose to read and/or listen to the audio contents, also in Autoplay mode. If something is unclear to you, resort to the glossary!

You can view the percentage of completion of activities through the Journal and earn culture points! Get the badges and access the Quiz: only then you can find out which is your medieval Beast and read a story inspired by the events of Padua at that time.

Plan your visit! The app allows you to contact museum receptionists directly and visit their web pages. To discover the places you can use the Map and activate the Google Maps geolocation service.

Finally, if you would like to share your observations, please contact us through the app. Your input is invaluable! Have a great trip!
