Padua is known for its rich history and culture, as well as its beautiful architecture. The city is home to the University of Padua, which was founded in 1222 and is one of the oldest universities in the world. Padua is also home to a number of important basilicas and churches, including the Basilica of Saint Anthony and the Scrovegni Chapel. The massive basilica of Saint Anthony is a pilgrimage site dedicated to Saint Anthony of Padua and is home to a number of important works of art, including sculptures by Donatello and paintings by Titian. The diminutive Scrovegni Chapel is considered to be one of the most important masterpieces of Italian art. The chapel was decorated with frescoes by Giotto between 1303 and 1305. The frescoes depict scenes from the lives of the Virgin Mary and Jesus Christ.
