The discovery of the noble floor of the “Stabilimento Pedrocchi” moves from storytelling and anecdotes to a dive into the wonderful “time machine” hidden inside the historic Padua coffeehouse.
From the lions of the small square, one ascends the imposing staircase of the vestibule, then crosses various rooms changing in style, era, and atmosphere.
The animated visit® evokes the figure of the coffee maker Antonio Pedrocchi, who entrusted the architect Giuseppe Jappelli with the task of creating “the most beautiful coffeehouse on earth.” It also commemorates the opening of the ground floor rooms on June 9, 1831, the completion of the Stabilimento Pedrocchi in 1842, up to Antonio’s death in 1852, recalling the splendor of the “Stabilimento Pedrocchi” and the events of the historic coffeehouse.
The story is dotted with verses and newspaper articles, meetings and confrontations, envies and successes, paid for dearly, with a lifetime of work, by the honest coffee maker.
The entrance ticket to the Museum of the Risorgimento and Contemporary Age combined with the animated visit, in addition to admission for the show, grants access during the opening hours of the museum itself.
