12–15-minute walk · about 1 km

A quiet spot near the gardens and the Scrovegni Chapel.

What to See

The Eremitani Church is known for its brick facade and wide nave. The Ovetari Chapel is reminiscent of Andrea Mantegna’s work and the painstaking reconstruction that followed the damage sustained during the war.

Take a moment in the square to admire the facade, then step inside when admission is permitted to appreciate the space and the light.

Walking there

Walk along Corso del Popolo and Corso Garibaldi, pass the Arena area, and continue to Piazza Eremitani.

Walking times and distances from the station area are approximate and depend on the route, entrance, and pace.
