Not everyone knows that… among the many records of our city, we have the honor of counting 2 pioneers linked to astonishing inventions of the contemporary age, to whom the University of Padova, grateful, has dedicated two museums just a few hundred meters apart. Indeed, we will discover a Padova capable of being a pioneer in the automotive sector and a major center for the study of physics at a global level.
We will first visit the museum dedicated to the figure of Enrico Bernardi, a historical pioneer of the automobile, and his important inventions and research that eventually culminated in his arrival at the legendary FIAT of the Agnelli family.
Subsequently, we will move to the museum of physics dedicated to the figure of Giovanni Poleni and his studies, also a distinguished professor of the Patavian university, father of physics at the national level and creator of the first calculator.

There will be 1 single tour scheduled to start at 3:00 PM
Duration of the visit (indicative) 2 hours and 30 minutes
A contribution of € 14 per participant is required (€ 12 for members), and for children up to 12 years € 9.
It is necessary to book via WhatsApp at 3716890812
