It’s a difficult time for everyone. The coronavirus hit us with the strength of a hurricane, and it hasn’t let us go yet. But to tackle the crisis, the hospital of Padua has been used as an example for the world. Just as it was two Paduan companies that made innovative contributions that were particularly useful during the public health crisis. Let’s see together what these were.
If you find yourselves in Padua, visiting the Pedrocchi Café is a must. Because the Pedrocchi Café in Padua isn’t just any café, and it’s not even just one of Italy’s historical cafés: it’s part of the history and identity of the city, like Prato della Valle and the Basilica of Saint Anthony, belonging to the memory of every person that’s been here.
Prato della Valle, the biggest square in all of Europe after Moscow’s Red Square, with the Caffè Pedrocchi is one of the symbols of Paduan identity. With its 90,000 m2 surface, it can legitimately boast the title of one of the most beautiful pedestrian zones in the world.
In the centre of the famous “lawn with no grass” is the island of Memmia.
A vast egg-shaped garden adorned with 4 bridges, 8 obelisks, 16 ornamental vases and a canal whose inner and outer border has pedestals upon which rise sculptures installed between 1775 and 1883 by various artists. But who do they represent?
