Villa dei Vescovi is a Venetian villa located in Luvigliano, a fraction of Torreglia (Padua). The construction dates back to the Renaissance and is inspired by a Roman domus. It can be considered the first example of the new taste for the rediscovery of Roman classicism in the hinterland of the Serenissima. It has been declared a national monument[2] and is owned by the FAI.

Montegrotto Terme Roman Thermal Complex / The Roman Excavations of Montegrotto The Roman excavations of Montegrotto Terme are a place that bears witness to our history and, ultimately, to our identity. Part 1 Montegrotto Terme played an important role as a spa town during Roman times. The significance of the town in this region is still evident today from the Roman excavations along the town's main street and the finds at the Hotel Neroniane. Ancient excavations, carried out in the 18th and more recent (20th) centuries, have unearthed numerous parts of a large thermal complex (accompanied by recreational and leisure areas) dating from the second half of the first century BC: a system of water channeling using waterwheels that supplied three pools for immersion. Numerous remains of other structures were also found, such as a nymphaeum and an odeum, a theater, and swimming pools. Thanks to the restoration work carried out by the municipality of Montegrotto Terme, residents and guests of our hotels can visit the Roman baths discovered between 1781 and 1788, where the natural environment of the Città d'Acque di Montegrotto and Abano was first officially recognized. The Patavini Fontes, as they were known to the ancients, are once again a tourist and cultural treasure of Montegrotto, which can be combined with spa treatments and wellness, creating an unparalleled experience. The Roman excavations of Montegrotto Terme are a place that bears witness to our history and, ultimately, our identity. Roman Baths of Montegrotto (archaeological area of Via Scavi).

Cathedral of Saints Peter and Elise, Montegrotto Terme Part 2 Inside the Cathedral of San Pietro in Montegrotto Terme, all the frescoes were created by the local artist Armando Migliolaro (1915–1999). In the apse are the three major scenes from the life of Saint Peter (the Primacy of Saint Peter, the Apostle's Penance after his Triple Denial, and the Giving of the Keys). In the dome, or rather "dome," is the dogma of the Immaculate Conception. In the background is the Annunciation. On the side altars are the Virgin Mary, the Health of the Sick, and Saint Anthony, Proclaimer of the Word. Next to the side altars are the Deposition and the Resurrection. Galliano Migliolaro, Armando's brother and first teacher, created the frescoes of the two lunettes above the east and north portals, depicting Eliseo Profeta and Saint Mauro Abate. The high altar with its large crucifix is the work of the Paduan sculptor Luigi Strazzabosco (1895–1980). The front of the altar, made of Istrian stone, depicts Pentecost; on the marble dossal are seven embossed copper panels representing the seven sacraments. The Stations of the Cross on the altar of the Madonna are a wooden work by Augusto Murer (1922–1985). The altar of Saint Anthony, on the other hand, is the work of the Milani brothers, while the 14 paintings depicting the most significant moments in the saint's life are by Alberto Verza, who also designed the embossed copper door panels for Sandro Balbo, also a local artist. Finally, the facade railing, the portal, and the large statue of Saint Peter, the work of sculptor Menegazzo, date from 1990.

Cathedral of Saints Peter and Elise, Montegrotto Terme Part 1 The Cathedral of San Pietro in Montegrotto Terme, dedicated to Saints Peter and Elise, rises imposingly above San Pietro Montagnon hill. The Cathedral of San Pietro in Montegrotto Terme, dedicated to Saints Peter and Elise, rises imposingly above the Colle di San Pietro Montagnon (or Colle Montagnone, part of the "Prebenda," or parish church) in the center of the spa town. It was built in the mid-20th century (1944–1949) to replace the remains of a vast Roman building, as the old parish church (now the Oratory of the Black Madonna) could no longer accommodate the growing population and tourists seeking spa treatments. The Colle Montagnone, which at the time boasted a vast and lush vineyard, was demolished thanks to the extensive use of cobblestones, and work continued even amidst the bombings of World War II. Among the various proposals, the design by Professors Galliano (a painter who had already frescoed the Villa Bugia in Abano Terme) and Armando Migliolaro was chosen, featuring three naves in a modernized Romanesque-Gothic style. The church was consecrated in 1963.
