FERRARA AND ITS LANDSCAPES

Ferrara offers an endless discovery of artistic treasures and enchanting views that transport visitors back in time to medieval atmospheres. It is the ideal setting for Double Path, as the city is surrounded by a vast hydrological ecosystem, rich in plants and birds. These fertile agricultural lands are also found in the frescoes of Palazzo Schifanoia, in the center of Ferrara.

The first path will be dedicated to navigating the Po River to the Comacchio lagoons, made magical by the presence of flamingos. These agricultural lands, made fertile by the river's presence, will also be featured in the frescoes of Palazzo Schifanoia, which will dominate the second path. This palace was considered one of the "Delizie Estensi" (Este Delights); it will offer the opportunity to learn about the art of the Officina Ferrarese, which included painters Ercole de' Roberti and Francesco del Cossa, who frescoed the months of the year and the flourishing agricultural activities related to them.
