Rovigo

The city stretches across the Polesine lowlands between the Adige and Canal Bianco rivers, featuring numerous architectural structures from different historical periods.

A document from Ravenna dated April 24, 838 marks the first written mention of Rovigo, which later became a possession of the House of Este in 1194.

The Accademia dei Concordi, established in 1580, maintains a significant library containing rare manuscripts and historical documents within the Town Hall complex.

The central railway station connects Rovigo to major cities including Venice, Bologna, and Verona, while the A13 motorway provides direct access to regional destinations.

The province contains the Po Delta National Park, where the Po River forms a vast delta system before flowing into the Adriatic Sea.
