Basilica of Santa Giustina, Padua The Basilica of Santa Giustina, which housed one of the most important and influential religious communities in Padua during the Middle Ages, has its origins long before the arrival of the monks: The first basilica was built in the 6th century on the site of the former cemetery of Prato della Valle, where the young martyr Giustina, a victim of Maximian's persecutions of Christians, was buried in 304 AD. The arrival of the Benedictines in Padua dates back to the 10th century. After their settlement, the remains of saints, hidden during the barbarian invasions, gradually came to light, including those of Saint Giustina and Saint Luke the Evangelist, author of the Third Gospel and chronicler of the Acts of the Apostles. His relics were brought from Thebes (Greece) to Constantinople and then from Constantinople to Padua. The present basilica dates from the 16th century and is 122 meters long, with three naves in the form of a Latin cross. The apse contains the remarkable carvings of the 15th-century wooden choir and the altarpiece by Paolo Veronese from 1575, depicting the Martyrdom of Saint Giustina. The transept houses the tomb of Saint Luke the Evangelist on the left and the tomb of Saint Matthias the Apostle on the right. From there, the impressive Martyrs' Corridor leads to the chapel in the form of a Greek cross, built at the end of the 6th century on the tomb of Saint Prosdocimus, the first Bishop of Padua. The monastery was dissolved by Napoleon in 1810 and served as a barracks until 1919, when the Benedictines returned to Sant'Giustina. Only with an authorized guide is it possible to visit the 14th-century Chapel of St. Luke, where Elena Lucrezia Cornaro Piscopia, the world's first female academic (1678), is buried, as well as the old 15th-century choir and the vestibule leading to the sacristy.

Roverello Pass in the heart of the Euganean Hills (269 m) / Province of Padua / Veneto Region The Roverello Pass lies in the heart of the Euganean Hills on the SP99 provincial road from Galzignano Terme to Fontanafredda.

Thus, the pass lies on both an east-west and a north-south route through this magnificent volcanic landscape in the middle of the Po Valley. The pass is situated between the highest peak of the Euganean Hills, Monte Venda (601 m) to the north, and Monte Peraro (376 m) to the south. Near the summit, there is a small parking area with tables and benches, perfect for a short break.

It's beautiful but it makes a mess when you ride a bike through it.

Route almost exclusively on dirt road along the river banks

This part of the Treviso Ostiglia is certainly one of the most interesting to travel, well shaded.

Fairly easy climb with some more challenging bumps to overcome. At the beginning of the climb on the right the particular Incompiuta church from the early twentieth century that was never completed, then you enter the woods of the Berici hills with alternating shade and sun. very beautiful to walk through.
