Museo Archeologico Nazionale
Via XX settembre, 122, 44121, Ferrara Italy
The National Archaeological Museum of Ferrara is housed in the magnificent Palazzo Costabili (said of Ludovico il Moro), one of the most beautiful Renaissance palazzi of Ferrara by the great ferrarese architect Biagio Rossetti. The central courtyard, the loggias, the grand staircase, the wide rooms testifie to the life of a high rank ducal family, evidenced by the extraordinary frescoed ceiling by Benvenuto Tisi da Garofalo, which portrays scenes of court life. The story of this exceptional building is linked to the fate of the ancient city of Spina, which begins to unfold in a sensational way at the time of the great land reclamation works in the first half of last century. The Palazzo became a casket for the treasures of the Etruscan city and displays the finds from the town of Spina and the rich grave goods from its necropolis: Etruscan bronzes, golden and amber jewels and wonderful Attic vases, decorated with mythical stories of gods and heroes and with scenes of daily life.

Museo di Casa Romei
Via Girolamo Savonarola 30, 44121, Ferrara Italy
Casa Romei was built by the merchant Giovanni Romei around the mid fifteenth century, and constitutes a unique renaissance mansion in Ferrara. Original decorations from the age of its first owner, elegant courtyards, loggias, halls, make it an exceptional landmark inside the ancient city centre. During the time that the house formed part of the Monastery of Corpus Domini, the ceilings of the rooms on the first floor (XVI century), were decorated with elegant grotesques. Casa Romei became a veritable museum in 1955 and received collections of frescoes, statues and lapidaries from mostly destroyed ancient city churches and civil buildings. Therefore you can discover -inside its 15 rooms- witnesses from a forgotten town. The echoes of important artists, such as Donatello, Francesco Dal Cossa, Gregorio di Lorenzo, Bastianino, Alfonso Lombardi, make the visit inside Casa Romei an unforgettable experience of a greater interest.

Chiesa di Santa Maria in Vado
Via Borgovado 3, 44121, Ferrara Italy
Santa Maria in Vado is a church located on Via Borgovado number 3 in Ferrara, Region of Emilia-Romagna, Italy.The church derives its name from a guado or fording (vado in dialect) that was located nearby. A church at the site was documented since the tenth century, but on Easter of 1171, a eucharistic miracle occurred when blood spouted from the host during consecration.[1] This made the church an object of pilgrimage. This miracle that appears to confirm transubstantiation resembles the subsequent events depicted in The Mass at Bolsena by Raphael.
