What's included, what's not

  • What's includedWhat's included
    The Ducal Palace of Mantua is much more than just a residence; it's almost a small city where hanging gardens, courtyards, squares, and apartments intertwine, all gathered around the beating heart of the palace: the Palatine Basilica of Santa Barbara. During the visit, you'll have the opportunity to explore the elegant apartments of the Gonzaga family, admire the Gothic details of Pisanello's works, and be fascinated by the famous Camera degli Sposi painted by Andrea Mantegna. You'll continue your journey with the tapestries designed by Raphael, until you reach the Corte Nuova, beautifully decorated by Giulio Romano. Finally, you'll find yourself in front of Rubens' masterpiece, completing an unforgettable journey through the works of art that tell the storey and power of the Gonzagas. A visit that not only reveals the artistic and architectural magnificence of Mantua, but also the refined taste and grandeur of one of the most influential families of the Italian Renaissance.
