This venue started out in the 18th century as a forum for scientific discussions and meetings as well as a place for entertainment, but soon became a dedicated theatre. The interior is magnificent, with its soaring tiers of boxes surrounding a small stalls area. One of the first performances here in 1770 was a concert by Mozart, who was just thirteen at the time. It’s a small theatre, with a current maximum audience of only 363.

When you will arrive by car to Mantua I recommend you to enter from north, through St. George Bridge: only in this way you can be astonished by the wonderful sight of Art Buildings growing like big flowers from the waters od the lakes created by River Mincio embracing the town from three sides!

Palazzo Te è un edificio monumentale situato a Mantova. E' stato costruito tra il 1524 e il 1534 su commissione di Federico II Gonzaga, secondo un progetto di Giulio Romano, allievo prediletto di Raffaello. Oltre al complesso architettonico il maestro manierista è l'autore anche di tutto l'impianto decorativo del Palazzo. Oggi Museo civico della città, è anche sede della Fondazione di Palazzo Te, già Centro internazionale d'arte e di cultura di Palazzo Te dal 1990, istituzione che organizza mostre d'arte antica e moderna ed eventi culturali.

Interesting visit. Some spectacular displays from the average to the weird and wonderful. The giants room is impressive as is the grotto.

We visited this basilica twice, and were fortunate the 2nd time to be given an extensive tour and oral history by one of the volunteer guides. As it was July 2020, there were very few people visiting.
6. Palazzo Valenti Gonzaga
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 127 reviews
An extraordinary path enriched by the spectacular frescoes by the Flemish painter FRANS GEFFELS (1625-1694) and the magnificent stucco decorations by GIOVAN BATTISTA BARBERINI (1625-1691), through more than 500 years of history, in a fascinating Baroque atmosphere, discovering one of the most secret pages of the ancient Mantua cultural civilization. PALAZZO VALENTI GONZAGA in Mantua, humiliated by the ruin, oblivion and pillage suffered during the early twentieth century, has been restored to its splendor to show its renewed magnificence. The memory of the Marquises VALENTI GONZAGA'S noble offspring continues to live in the rediscovered dignity of their illustrious dwelling.
