Battistero del Duomo - World Heritage Site
What the experts agree on
This 13th-century baptistry next to Padua's cathedral steals the show with stunning frescoes by Giusto de' Menabuoi painted in the 1370s, depicting vivid biblical scenes that outshine the cathedral itself.
“South of the palazzo is the city’s cathedral , built from a much altered design of Michelangelo’s and completely upstaged by the adjoining 13th-century Baptistry .”
