Explore Padua's eight UNESCO World Heritage Sites and their celebrated frescoes.

Padova Urbs Picta is the official app for discovering Padua's 14th-century frescoes: take a journey through time to admire masterpieces by Giotto and other fourteenth-century artists that have established the city as a treasure trove of art and culture.
