Palazzo della Ragione, Padua, Veneto, Italy, Europe
The Palazzo della Ragione is a medieval town hall building in Padua, in the Veneto region of Italy. The building, with its great hall on the upper floor, is reputed to have the largest roof unsupported by columns in Europe; the hall is nearly rectangular, its length 81.5m, its breadth 27m, and its height 24 m; the walls are covered with allegorical frescoes; the building stands on arches, and the upper storey is surrounded by an open loggia, not unlike that which surrounds the basilica of Vicenza. The Palazzo was begun in 1172 and finished in 1219. In 1306, Fra Giovanni, an Augustinian friar, covered the whole with one roof; originally there were three roofs, spanning the three chambers into which the hall was at first divided; the internal partition walls remained till the fire of 1420, when the Venetian architects who undertook the restoration removed them, throwing all three spaces into one and forming the present great hall, the Salone. The new space was refrescoed by Nicolò Miretto and Stefano da Ferrara, working from 1425 to 1440. A tornado destroyed the roof and damaged the building on 17 August 1756.
Padua, Italy, travel in the Old Town
Padua in northern Italy is one of those great old cities with a beautifully preserved historic center. The pedestrian zone has got arcades and shops, bars and cafés, cobblestone and broad piazzas, and lots of people out having a good time. We say Padua, Italians say Padova. In this episode we are going to focus more on people and the street life rather than historic sites like churches or museums. We will be showing you some great old buildings and suggesting a nice walking route that will get you right around through the historic center of Padua and will take you into the university district. Padua makes a very convenient day trip from nearby Venice, which is just 24 miles away – it's about a half hour train ride. We visit the main piazzas and Via Roma, a wonderful walking street. It really is the main pedestrian lane of Padua, and while it's not a piazza it functions as one because there are no cars allowed, so it's long and narrow as a street but filled with people.
The town has a wonderful historic center with pedestrian lanes and the loggia, with all of these arcades and columns. It's very pedestrian-friendly and bicycle-friendly. People are pedaling all over the place here, and there's lots of cafés, naturally, sidewalk cafés, people eating and drinking in the evening especially the young people, who come out about 6 o'clock to 7 o'clock and have a spritz, or a beer, have a wine at the café.
he grand Palazzo della Ragione is surrounded by three primary piazzas - delle Erbe, dei Fruit and dei Signori. This is the heart of Padua.
We found some sort of a street party going on. Turns out they are celebrating graduation day at the Padua medical school. It's the oldest medical school in the world, first founded with the University in the year 1222. And this being Italy they know how to celebrate in the streets. Amazing to think this ritual has been going on annually for about 800 years. And Padua still has one of the best medical schools in the world. The University has been associated with a large number of important intellectuals such as Copernicus, Galileo, Stendhal and William Harvey, who developed his system of blood circulation here. The university medical school has the oldest anatomy lab in the world and the university also hosts the oldest botanical garden in the world, which was used as a garden of curative herbs attached to the medical school. When done with your visit to Padua you can catch the tram right back to the train station.

Palladio Museum, Barbarano Palace, Vicenza, Veneto, Italy, Europe
Palazzo Barbaran Da Porto is a palazzo in Vicenza, Italy designed in 1569 and built between 1570 and 1575 by Andrea Palladio. Since 1994 the palace is part of the City of Vicenza and the Palladian Villas of the Veneto World Heritage Site by UNESCO. In the palace is located the Palladio Museum and the Centro Internazionale di Studi di Architettura Andrea Palladio (CISA). The sumptuous residence realised between 1570 and 1575 for the Vicentine noble Montano Barbarano is the only great city palace that Andrea Palladio succeeded in executing in its entirety. In his History of Vicenza of 1591, Iacopo Marzari records Montano Barbarano as a man “of belles lettres and most excellent musician”. Various flutes figure in the 1592 inventory of the palace, confirming the existence of an intensive musical activity there.
At least three different autograph projects survive, preserved in London, which document alternative hypotheses for the building’s plan, all quite different from the actual one and testimony to a complex design process. Barbarano, in fact, requested Palladio to respect the existence of various houses belonging to the family and already existing on the area of the new palace. Moreover, once the project was finalised Barbarano acquired a further house adjoining the property, which resulted in the asymmetrical positioning of the entrance portal. In any case, the constraints imposed by the site and by a practical patron became the occasion for courageous and refined solutions: Palladio’s intervention is magisterial, elaborating upon a sophisticated project for “restructuring” which blended the diverse pre-existing structures into a unified edifice. In 1998, after a twenty-year restoration, the Palace has been opened to the public. The exhibition activities began in March 1999. On the ground floor, a magnificent four-columned atrium welds together the two pre-existing building lots. In realising the scheme, Palladio was called upon to resolve two problems: one statical, how to support the floor of the great hall on the piano nobile; the other compositional, how to restore a symmetrical appearance to interiors compromised by the oblique course of the perimeter walls from the pre-existing houses. Departing from the model of the wings of the Theatre of Marcellus in Rome, Palladio divided the interior into three aisles, placing centrally four Ionic columns which allowed the reduction of the span of the central cross-vaults, set against lateral barrel vaults. He thus achieved a very statically efficient framework capable of bearing the floor of the hall above without any difficulty. The central columns were then tied to the perimeter walls by fragments of rectilinear entablature, which absorb the irregularities of the atrium plan: in this way he realised a sort of system of “serlianas”, a stratagem conceptually similar to that of the Basilica loggias. Palladio even adopted the unusual type of Ionic capital derived from the Temple of Saturn in the Forum Romanum because it permitted him to mask the slight but significant rotations necessary to align the columns and engaged columns. To decorate the palace, in several campaigns Montano employed some of the greatest artists of his time: Giovanni Battista Zelotti (who had already intervened in the interiors of Palladio’s Villa Emo at Fanzolo), Anselmo Canera and Andrea Vicentino; the stuccoes were entrusted to Lorenzo Rubini (who contemporaneously executed the external decorations of the Loggia del Capitanio) and, after his death in 1574, to his son Agostino. The net result was a sumptuous palace capable of rivalling the residences of the Thiene, the Porto and of the Valmarana, a palace which permitted its patron to represent himself to the city as a ranking member of the Vicentine cultural élite.
Padova (Veneto) Piazza Delle Erbe e Palazzo Della Ragione - videomix
Piazza delle Erbe chiamata un tempo anche Piazza delle Biade o Piazza del Vino è una delle numerose piazze che caratterizzano il centro storico di Padova. Fu per secoli, con Piazza della Frutta, il centro commerciale della città. Nelle due piazze si svolge uno dei più grandi mercati d'Italia. A differenza di Piazza dei Signori, teatro delle celebrazioni civiche, Piazza delle Erbe era sede dei festeggiamenti popolareschi. La piazza è dominata dalla mole del Palazzo della Ragione, parte del grande Palazzo Comunale.

Places to see in ( Vicenza - Italy ) Piazza dei Signori
In the center of Vicenza you will find, Piazza dei Signori, a rectangular square measuring 28-meters wide by 122-meters long, it’s surrounded by architectural masterpieces including Andrea Palladio’s Basilica Palladian and the Loggia del Capitaniato, along with Palazzo del Monte di Pietà, Chiesa di San Vincenzo, Torre Bissara and the Lion of St. Mark and Christ the Redeemer columns.
The City of Vicenza is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Piazza dei Signori is the perfect place to begin getting acquainted with Vicenza, the “City of Palladio.” In 2012, the City of Vicenza re-opened the Basilica Palladian and now allows, at no charge, the public to explore the rooftop and the wrap-around loggia created by Andrea Palladio. This is a not-to-be-missed opportunity to take a few bird’s-eye view photos of the classic square of Vicenza.
This piazza was originally named the Foro Romano when the city was ruled from afar by the Roman Empire, then changed to Piazza Grande during the Middle Ages, and finally to Piazza dei Signori during the Renaissance when Vicenza fell under the control of the Signoria, the governing body of the Republic of Venice.
Piazza dei Signori hosts the weekly Tuesday and Thursday open-air markets, fills the night with concerts in a variety of musical genres throughout the year, showcases festivals for just about every occasion, and is the center for many Vicentini out for a stroll passagati or a pre-dinner aperitivo (cocktail) with friends.

Verona - Piazza Delle Erbe - Palazzo della Ragione - Palazzo Capitanio - Arche Scaligere
Piazza delle Erbe (o più semplicemente piazza Erbe) è la piazza più antica di Verona, e sorge sopra l'area del foro romano. Nell'età romana era il centro della vita politica ed economica; con il tempo gli edifici romani hanno lasciato il posto a quelli medievali. Nel 2012 viene considerata la piazza italiana più amata al mondo secondo una ricerca realizzata dalla Fondazione Marilena Ferrari, che ha monitorato per un anno 100 tra le principali testate estere.
Il lato nord è occupato dall'antico palazzo del Comune, dalla Torre dei Lamberti, dalla Casa dei Giudici e dalle case dei Mazzanti.
Il Iato ovest, quello più piccolo, è chiuso dal barocco Palazzo Maffei, adornato da diverse statue di dei greci: Giove, Ercole, Minerva, Venere, Mercurio e Apollo.
Il lato nord-ovest della piazza fonda sul Campidoglio romano, che guardava verso il Foro. Molte abitazioni conservano resti di pitture a fresco. Sorge nel lato sud la Casa dei Mercanti (o Domus Mercatorum), dove oggi ha sede la Banca Popolare di Verona. Le altre case, più anonime, ricordano per il rapporto altezza-larghezza le case-torri di origine comunale.
Il monumento più antico della piazza è la fontana sormontata dalla statua denominata Madonna Verona d'epoca romana datata 380 con integrazioni medievali. La fontana è opera di spoglio voluta da Cansignorio assemblando pezzi di epoca romana come da tradizione medievale nel periodo gotico in particolare, con grande vasca termale e statua proveniente dal Capitolium si dice un tempo fosse dorata, in occasione dell'opera idraulica di Cansignorio di portare l'acqua del torrente Lorì di Avesa fino a Piazza Erbe.[2] La statua è ornata di cartiglio tra le mani e reca impresso il vecchio motto del Comune che così recita “a questa città portatrice di giustizia e amante di lode”.
Altro monumento storico è il capitello, detto Tribuna. Viene datato intorno al XIII secolo, periodo in cui venne utilizzato per varie cerimonie: in particolare sotto di esso sedevano i podestà per la cerimonia dell'insediamento e là prestavano giuramento i pretori.
Verso via Cappello sorge un'antica colonna sormontata da un'edicola di origine trecentesca, nelle cui nicchie sono scolpite a rilievo le figure della Vergine e dei santi Zeno, Pietro Martire e Cristoforo.
Davanti a palazzo Maffei sorge una superba colonna in marmo bianco, sulla cui sommità è presente il leone di San Marco, simbolo della Repubblica di Venezia.
Mantua Italy • Including a Visit to the Palazzo Ducale Mantova Italia
Mantua Italy Including a Visit to the Palazzo Ducale Mantova Italia. Our cruise has a dramatic approach to Mantua, home of the poet Virgil, artists Mantegna and Donatello and a captivating lakeside setting. Mantua displays extraordinary neo-classical and baroque architecture, portrayed in the 14thC Ducal Palace housing some 15 gardens and courtyards, a museum, basilica and theatre. The intricate frescoes, Gallery of Mirrors and exquisite Rivers Room and 12,000 paintings and sculptures all create a Grand Finale to our Italian Renaissance adventure.
The imposing capital of Lombardy, Mantua (or Mantova) is a beautiful, historic city surrounded on three sides by artificial lakes created during the 12th century. Mantua's historic power and influence under the wealthy Gonzaga family made it one of the main artistic, cultural and musical hubs of Northern Italy. Mantua's most famous ancient citizen is the poet Publius Vergilius Maro, Virgil, who was born near the city in 70 BC. revolt backed by the House of Gonzaga led to the election of Luigi Gonzaga as the Captain General of Mantua. The Gonzagas built new walls with five gates and renovated the architecture of the city in the 14th century. During the Renaissance, the Gonzaga family raised the level of culture and refinement. In 1627, the Gonzaga line came to an end, and the town slowly declined under the new rulers.
Palazzo Ducale, the home of the Gonzaga family from the late 13th to early 17th centuries, is a huge complex of buildings, courtyards, a museum, basilica, theatre and 15 gardens. There are over 500 rooms and some 12,000 paintings and sculptures. The most famous room is the Camera degli Sposi with frescoes from 1474 painted by Mantegna.
The Duomo, the Cathedral of San Pietro, was first erected on the site of a Palaeo-Christian structure that was destroyed by a fire in 894. The church was rebuilt in 1395-1401 with the addition of side chapels and a magnificent Gothic façade. After another fire in the 16th century, the interior was remade. In 1756-1761 the façade was replaced by the Baroque one in Carrara's marble.
The Basilica di Sant'Andrea was begun in 1462 on a site occupied by a Benedictine monastery and finished 328 years later. The Benedictine bell tower from 1414 still remains. The church holds the tomb of the painter Andrea Mantegna and a much-disputed relic said to hold the blood of Christ.
The 11th century Rotonda of San Lorenzo, the most ancient church in the city, is believed to be on the site of a Roman temple to Venus. Deconsecrated, it was used for dwellings, shops and stores. Later it was restored and the external additions removed.
In 2008 Mantua became a UNESCO World Heritage Site based on its Renaissance planning and architecture.

Ducal Palace, Mantua, Lombardy, Italy, Europe
The Palazzo Ducale di Mantova is a group of buildings in Mantua, Lombardy, northern Italy, built between the 14th and the 17th century mainly by the noble family of Gonzaga as their royal residence in the capital of their Duchy. The buildings are connected by corridors and galleries and are enriched by inner courts and wide gardens. The complex includes some 500 rooms and occupies an area of c. 34,000 m². Although most famous for Mantegna's frescos in the Camera degli Sposi (Wedding Room), they have many other very significant architectural and painted elements. The Gonzaga family lived in the palace from 1328 to 1707, when the dynasty died out. Subsequently, the buildings saw a sharp decline, which was halted in the 20th century with a continuing process of restoration and the designation of the area as museum. In 1998, a hidden room was discovered by Palace scholars, led by musicologist Paula Bezzutti. The room is thought to have been used for performances of Monteverdi's music in the late 16th century. The entrance of the palace is from Piazza Sordello, onto which the most ancient buildings, the Palazzo del Capitano and the Magna Domus, open. They formed the original nucleus of the so-called Corte Vecchia. The Palazzo del Capitano (Captain's Palace) was built in the late 13th century by the Captain of the People Guido Buonacolsi (whose family ruled Mantua from 1271 to 1328). Initially built on two floors and separated from the Magna Domus (Latin: Big House) by an alley, in the early 14th century it received a further floor and was united to the Magna Domus by a large façade with a portico. The additional floor consists of a huge hall (67x15 m), known as Hall of the Weapon Room of Hall of Diet, as it housed the Diet of Mantua in 1459. The monumental Scalone delle Duchesse (Duchesses' Staircase), built in the 17th century and renovated in 1779 by Paolo Pozzo, leads to the Room of the Morone, named after the 1494 canvas of the Veronese painter Domenico Morone, portraying the Expulsion of the Bonacolsi in 1328. In the noble floor of the Captain's Palace is the First Room of Guastalla, with a fresco frieze with portraits of the Gonzaga family, which once extended to the successive room, the Room of Pisanello, from the artist who, from 1433, painted a series of frescoes depicting a Tournament and other scenes, which were left unfinished. His commissioner, Gianfrancesco Gonzaga, is portrayed in the paintings. The frescoes were rediscovered and restored in the 1960s and 1970s. The Castle of St. George (Castello di San Giorgio) was built from 1395 and finished in 1406 under commission by Francesco I Gonzaga, designed by Bartolino da Novara, one of the most renowned military architects of the time. It has as square plan with four corner towers, surrounded by a ditch with three entrances, each one with a drawbridge. In 1459 architect Luca Fancelli, commissioned by marquis Ludovico III Gonzaga, who assigned several rooms of the Corte Vecchia for the Council of Mantua called by Pope Pius II, restored the castle, which lost definitely lost its military and defensive function. The main feature of the Corte Nuova (New Court) is the Sala di Manto, once the entrance to the Apartment of Troy, which takes its name from the frescoes (1538–1539) by collaborators of Giulio Romano, commissioned by Federico II Gonzaga to restore several rooms in the Palace. The current appearance of the Sala del Manto dates to the intervention of Guglielmo X, who ordered the creation of the Appartamento Grande di Castello (Large Apartment of the Castle). The frescoes in the hall depict the story of Troy, preceded by the arrival in Italy of Manto, a legendary daughter of Tiresias. Cortile della Cavallerizza, designed by Giovanni Battista Bertani, who in 1556 adapted the style of the buildings surrounding this courtyard to the Mannerist style of Giulio Romano characterizing the pre-existing palace, called La Rustica, which also faced it. It was the place where the Gonzaga's horses were shown before being sold. Giardino dei Semplici (Garden of Simples, i. e., medicinal herbs), also known as Giardino del Padiglione, built in 1603 by Zenobio Bocchi. It housed the flowers and the essences used by the members of the Gonzaga court to perfume their clothes.
Hanging Garden, in the Refectory (late-16th century), located at 12 m of elevation. During the 18th century, during the Austrian rule, it received a Coffee House. Secret Garden, part of the apartment of Isabella d'Este in the Corte Vecchia, built 1522 by the Mantuan architect Gian Battista Covo. Cortile delle Otto Facce (Courtyard of the Eight Faces), also known as Cortile degli Orsi (Courtyard of the Bears).

TG PADOVA (mercoledì 19 giugno 2019) - Aggredito a colpi di badile fino a lasciarlo quasi in fin di vita. La sua colpa quella di voler vedere la madre. Una lite famigliare che poteva finire in tragedia – quella avvenuta in un'abitazione di via Savellon a Pernumia. Giacomo Dardengo 38enne di Monselice è stato picchiato e preso a badilate dal convivente della madre il 46enne Mirco Gechele e dal suo amico Fausto Binato di 69 anni che da qualche tempo viveva lì. Le urla dell'uomo sono state udite dai vicini di casa che hanno allertato i carabinieri che sono subito corsi sul posto.Nell'abitazione hanno trovato il 38enne privo di coscienza soccorso dalla madre, il viso una maschera di sangue. Portato in ospedale i medici gli hanno riscontrato ferite alla testa, al volto e numerose costole rotte. Nel giardino dell'abitazione i carabinieri hanno ritrovato un badile con il manico spezzato.Dopo aver raccolto le testimonianze dei vicini e della madre del 38enne il convivente e il suo amico – già noti alle forze dell'ordine - sono stati arrestati con l'accusa di tentato omicidio in concorso. In casa i rapporti erano tesi da tempo. Frequenti le liti perchè Giacomo Dardengo volveva fare visita alla madre (
La scienza nascosta nei luoghi di Padova: il teatro anatomico
Esistono luoghi a Padova che raccontano storie di scienza, dai risvolti a volte più o meno noti. Uno di questi è il teatro anatomico dell’università di Padova, costruito nel Cinquecento durante il magistero di Girolamo Fabrici d’Acquapendente.
Fabio Zampieri, storico della medicina all'università di Padova, ci porta al suo interno e ce ne racconta il significato.
