About this activity

With this tour to Monselice we will learn more about this walled city from which many writers, artists and poets were inspired. We will visit the Monselice Castle, a treasure chest containing ancient weapons, chests, valuable tapestries and splendid period furnishings from all over Italy. We will then go up along what has been defined as the most beautiful walk in the Veneto, via del Santuario, with its Villas, its famous Seven Churches which recall the Seven Basilicas of Rome and which are still a popular pilgrimage destination for devotees from all over Europe . There will be no shortage of panoramic points from which to admire the town from above.

We will then go to visit an oil mill, where the young owners will directly show you the art of oil production and involve us in a tasty tasting of extra virgin olive oil (EVO).
