Cappella degli Scrovegni

The Scrovegni Chapel is small in size but enormous in art history: Giotto’s fresco cycle changed the way space, emotion and human figures could be represented in the early 14th century.

Why visit

Visits are timed and relatively short, so a little context beforehand makes a real difference. Look at how the scenes speak to one another across the walls, rather than focusing only on the most famous individual panels.

02

What not to miss

Focus especially on main collection, architecture and exhibition spaces, historical context. These are the features that best reveal the character of the site without turning the visit into a race.
