Rovigo culture and gastronomy

Today I will tell you about a beautiful city located in the Italian region of Veneto, called Rovigo. In this enchanting town you will certainly spend very pleasant moments...

This beautiful Venetian town, hides wonderful secrets, is a city with a mysterious air and you don't know for sure not even when its history has begun, since the first historical document to reveal a bit of the mystery is from the year 838 AD.

I recommend a quiet tour among some of the most important tourist spots in the city, among which: the Duomo, dedicated to Santo Stefano, and built initially in the year of 1607, when it was put the foundation stone; the Temple of the Blessed Virgin of the Soccorso, called by roundabout; the Palazzina Minelli; the Palazzo Ravena; the Museum of Great Rivers.

Among all the opportunities and services offered by the city, without any doubt, there is the wonderful Venetian culinary and its delicious wines; don't miss the opportunity to taste the exceptional cuisine typical local, it's really great!

Churches and places of worship

Chiesa della Beata Vergine del Soccorso

The Church of Santa Maria del Soccorso was created by Francesco Zamberlan in 1594. The building is octagonal in shape and is known as ``The Round``, it has two entrances, the main ``IV November`` and the entrance ``Piazza XX Settembre``. In its interior we can admire the image of the Madonna and Child holding a rose considered miraculous which was subsequently renamed as Santa Maria del Soccorso. Inside the church we also find other works and objects of art such as the organ of Gaetano Callido.

Museums

Pinacoteca del Seminario Vescovile

In 1982, the Art Gallery of the Episcopal Seminary was entrusted to the Accademia dei Concordi (1580), ending in fact the reunification of the original Silvestri collection. Thus, a rich art gallery of about 200 works of Venetian art from the fifteenth to the eighteenth century is established, among which some masterpieces known all over the world stand out. In addition, in several windows, pre-Roman and Roman archaeological finds are preserved in black, red and gray ceramics, dating from the fourth to the first century BC.
