The Padovanità Association presents:
Discovering the Ponte di Brenta district: from the Church of San Marco to Villa Breda
Sunday, June 7, 2026
Padovanità proposes this walk to discover one of the historic neighborhoods outside the walls of Padua: the Ponte di Brenta district.
A historical-anthropological itinerary, made up of stories, testimonies, anecdotes, and curiosities about the evolution of the neighborhood over time and its history: from medieval origins to the splendor of the 19th century.
You will visit the ancient Church of San Marco, whose origins date back to the formation of the village, even in the late Middle Ages.
A historical overview of Vincenzo Stefano Breda, a figure who created an unbreakable bond with the historic district of Ponte di Brenta.
Then we will visit the enchanting Villa Breda and its park: a place that became a city gate for those coming from the Venetian area.
Meeting at 4:30 p.m. in piazzale Barbato (comfortable shoes are recommended)
Duration of the visit (approximate) 2 hours
A contribution of € 12 is required per participant (€ 10 for members), and for children up to 12 years old, the visit is only € 6.
