scrovegni chapel (cappella degli scrovegni)印象
-
I visited largely because a friend on a recent visit tried to and the place was closed. I'm glad I went on her behalf, it was an interesting visit. which starts with a 15min video giving you a historical background of the church, it's founder and the art. Followed by a 15min visit to actually see the live work. It's a small church so for me the 15mins was enough. I thought the entrance fee a bit expensive at €13 per person.

Feb., 2015. Truly beautiful, especially given it's early, early Renaissance provenance! Giotto was an amazing man! I feel inadequate trying to describe this place & relating it's beauty. Thank God there was a Giotto to steer us into the period of artistic "rebirth". Somethings to know: when (if) you take the tram from the ferrovia to Scrovegni: get off the tram @ the Scrovegni/Chapel stop & stand facing Scrovegni's grounds (see the ancient Roman wall, across the street from the tram stop). Cross the street. Walk to the RIGHT in order to enter the Ticket Office. Apparently, "in season"', just follow the lines. In winter, you're on your own. Scrovegni Visitors are let in via groups. In the winter, (on a chilly Wednesday in February, about 10:30a) we were in a group of 6 people, the group after us had about 4. There must be WAY more people, as indicated by the # of chairs in the de-humidifying room, "in season"! So! Consider a winter visit! We did NOT have advance tickets, as we weren't sure we could take the time to stop in Padua. "In Season", apparently, given small "group admission" practices, Scrovegni advance tix ARE a must. However, we just walked in & asked to buy 2 tix for the next admission time, which was in about 10'. Getting around: Purchase your tram tix @ the Padua Tabacchi Shop or "T" @ the ferrovia (train station). The tram is "caught" outside. The tram stop is out the door of the ferrovia & to your right, with your back to the station's "doors". Look for McDonald's. The stop is exactly in front of it on the ferrovia side. Look, also, for the tram tracks! Purchase: 3 tix @ "T Shop". Use 1, and then just verify this ticket on this segment, to reach Scrovegni (actually walkable from ferrovia). Use the 2nd ticket to take the tram to St. Anthony's Basilica, which is walkable, but a LONG, LONG walk (St. Anthony's is a must see if you've made the trip to Padua) from Scrovegni AND REMEMBER to verify! Use the 3rd ticket (remember to verify!) to take the tram back to ferrovia from the Basilica (which is actually on Vatican City's grounds). There are only a few "T Shops" by the Basilica & these can be closed for HOURS during the mid-day "break", so purchase, in advance while @ the ferrovia. There are tram ticket machines @ the stops, but fumbling with change, etc is silly if you can just do it all @ once @ the Tabacchi Shop, on your way into town. The tickets will remain "good" until you verify them, then you've got 75' to use or lose them. If you plan it right, it's very easy to see both sites in 1 day and VERY, VERY much worth it! A day you'll not forget! Insure you have time to visit the most remarkable museum @ Scrovegni, as well! Ask for directions to the "Crucifix"! (We didn't buy a Padua Card.)

What a great visit in the chapel designed by Giotto 700 years ago! We recommend a guided tour, to ask for your own language . Try to get some info before entering this wonder, there are breathtaking and inspiring visions , and you learn things you did not know and could not appreciate. Also Nice the museo civico with a lot of archeological remains and the pinacoteca paint exhibition with some masterpiece from 14 the till 18th century . Great

The chapel is a captivating place to visit. The frescos are a delight. It's amazing to consider that all this was completed in only two years.

The chapel is great! But you can stay in only 15'! We took a guided tour, the guide talked very quickly for almost 10 minutes to show details of the frescos and the story and then we had just a few minutes before the bell rang. Why not considering 5 minutes more?

We did not book on line so were pleased to gain entry to the Chapel - if we had known what we could have missed, we would have booked. Be prepared to wait, both outside and inside while other visitors leave and the climate is balanced in the chapel. Outside was cold as we were visiting in winter, inside was pleasant and the wait enhanced by a film. Giotto's frescoes were breath taking. You will be able to stand and slowly take in their beauty, without being hurried or pushed aside by other viewers. The environment and nature of the art encourages an almost silent viewing, unmarred by haste or loud explanations. I felt that the time we were given was just right and the whole venture a credit, of course to Giotto, but also to the people who make the frescoes available to viewers.

We booked this in advance online. Every painting tells a story. Very intricate and very interesting. They let us stay inside almost an hour.

You can wander all over Umbria and Tuscany viewing the works of Giotto but to have the most sublime exposure to this artist the Scrovegni Chapel in Padova is hard to top. The intimacy of the space allows you to view the frescoes one panel at a time. You need to be focused as the time allowed inside the chapel is not adequate to fully follow the tread of the narrative. If you go in the winter months you can avoid all the Reserve in Advance hassles. I found their website especially onerous to navigate. We were told by our hotel staff to just show up without a reservation and sure enough that worked. We got in on the next time slot, less than a 10 minute wait. But apparently that is not remotely possible during the busy season. our favorite panel was The Flight Into Egypt, the Madonna and Child sitting atop a determined and trustworthy donkey, you can feel the power of his stride, his sense of mission.

You have to go. That's all. Bring binoculars. It was magnificent. Make reservations, because you don't want to be turned away. (We somehow couldn't get three reservations to go through, so we only made two and were able to add an extra person at the museum ticket office -- but that was during low season and we may just have gotten lucky. The time slot just ahead of us seemed to have a larger crowd.)And my 13-year-old, who was tired of museums and paintings, liked it. The little chamber where they dry you out (literally, not idiomatically) and warm you up while showing you a video about the chapel was a very nice touch for younger travelers -- and of course a necessary part of protecting the frescoes. For younger travelers, who go through Italy looking at lots of paintings without exactly understanding why those particular paintings are significant or what the historical context was, the extra information might be the difference between appreciating works of art and thinking, "Oh, another beautiful picture. And a million more to come."

It was difficult to book tickets for this event online, long winded process but worth it. The walls ooze history. The film whilst waiting to go in to see the paintings was informative
