Padovanità offers this interesting visit to Palazzo del Bo for the over 800 years of glorious history of our beloved university, one of the largest and most important building complexes in Padua, which has been a university seat since the late 15th century.
The palace consists of two building blocks. The first is organized around the so-called Old Courtyard, constructed starting in 1547, which was occupied in medieval times by the Hospitium Bovis, an inn located in the area of the butcher shops. Due to its origins, Palazzo del Bo has retained the ancient name of this space.
The visit, with a guide completely at our disposal, will begin from the ticket office in the New Courtyard and will continue inside Palazzo del Bo, passing through the anatomical theater, Galileo Galilei’s chair, appreciating the 16th-century section and then the 20th-century section (Bo Grande).
