As we explore this iconic site, I’ll guide you through its rich history and breathtaking masterpieces, from Giusto de Menabuoi and Altichiero da Zevio’s 14th-century frescoes to exquisite 16th-century marble sculptures. You’ll marvel at the Basilica’s stunning baroque details, especially in the chapel and sanctuary dedicated to St. Anthony.
