Montagnana

Overview

Montagnana fascinates the traveller at first sight, with its ancient atmosphere, with its appearance as a village that has made a leap in time and returned to the Middle Ages, amidst duels, fights, and star-crossed love between ladies and knights. The heart and symbol of the village, guarded by the imposing walls that completely surround the historic centre, is the medieval stronghold built from the 14th century onwards, at the time of the rule of the Carraresi family, and defended by a large moat that today has been transformed into a splendid green expanse. In addition to the Rocca degli Alberi, the Mastio and the San Zeno Castle stand out among the walls. Everything here brings to mind the endless battles that have shaken the area: a border town, Montagnana was in fact designed to be impregnable, and only when firearms came into use was the town attacked.
