Pedrocchi Café

The Pedrocchi Café building features neoclassical architecture with Doric arcades and four stone lions guarding its entrance on Piazza Cavour in central Padua.

Designed by architect Giuseppe Jappelli, the café opened in 1831 and witnessed significant events during the 1848 uprising against Austrian rule in Padua.

The ground floor contains three distinct rooms named after their colors - Red, White, and Green - where intellectuals and students gather for discussions.

The café operates under F&DE Group SRL management, offering coffee service and pastries on the ground floor, while the upper floor hosts private events.

From its inauguration until 1916, Pedrocchi Café remained open continuously day and night, earning the name 'café without doors' in Padua.
