The association Padovanità presents:
Palazzo Bo: from the anatomical theater to Galileo’s chair
Monday, June 1, 2026 – Padova
Padovanità offers an interesting visit to Palazzo del Bo, one of the largest and most important building complexes in Padova, and a university headquarters since the late 15th century, to celebrate over 800 years of glorious history of the beloved university.
The palace consists of two wings. The first is organized around the so-called Cortile Antico, built starting in 1547, which was occupied in the medieval era by the Hospitium Bovis, an inn located in the area of the butcheries. Due to its origins, Palazzo del Bo has retained the ancient name of this space.
The visit, with a guide entirely at our disposal, will begin at the ticket office in Cortile Nuovo and continue inside Palazzo del Bo, passing through the anatomical theater, Galileo Galilei’s chair, appreciating the 16th-century part and then the 20th-century part (Bo Grande).
There will be 2 time slots for the visit:
– first slot at 11:00 a.m.
– second slot at 4:00 p.m.
Duration of the visit (indicative) 1 hour and 30 minutes
A contribution of € 15 is required (€ 13 for members), for children up to 12 years old only € 10.
Advance reservation is required, which can be made via WhatsApp message to our number 371/6890812
