Discovering the ancient church of Santa Sofia and its crypt

OCT 31, 2026

Santa Sofia is probably the oldest church in Padua, built on pagan remains from the 3rd and 4th centuries, and it represents one of the most important testimonies of Romanesque architecture in Veneto.

After visiting and exploring the three internal naves, which housed among other things one of Mantegna’s earliest works, we will exclusively descend to the lower level to visit the crypt that reveals the archaic foundation of the church of Santa Sofia, linked to Mithraic worship.

A single tour is scheduled at 3:00 p.m., lasting about 1 hour and 30 minutes.

A contribution of € 15 (€ 13 for members) is required for each participant, and for children up to 12 years old, it is € 6.
