This day-as-a-local together with an expert licensed guide will begin from one of tis icons: the Schifanoia Palace, a building conceived back in the 1300s for the leisure of the noble class and still housing the stunning Paintings of the Months, the largest Renaissance cycle depicting pagan frescoes!

Castello Estense will catch your attention, either: the fortress is one of the most important testimonies of the 1500s, symbol of the deep cultural involvement of the Este family during the Renaissance and nowadays a permanent museum headquarters in which you can still admire the ducal apartments, the ancient prisons, the Lion’s Tower, the Oranges’s Garden and the ducal kitchens.

After small detours back in time along the medieval alleys, it will be time for a short break at one of the historical pastry shops to taste the legendary tenerina cake.
