Loggia e Odeo Cornaro, Renaissance theater complex in Padua, Italy.

The Loggia and Odeo Cornaro consist of two connected Renaissance buildings featuring an arcade, an octagonal room, and decorated niches with marine motifs.

Architect Giovanni Maria Falconetto constructed these buildings between 1524 and 1534 for the writer and patron Alvise Cornaro as part of a larger entertainment complex.

The buildings became a center for theatrical performances, musical events, and intellectual gatherings through the Accademia degli Infiammati during the 16th century.

Located at Via Cesarotti 37, the complex opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10 AM to 1 PM, with extended afternoon hours varying by season.

The central octagonal room displays intricate frescoes influenced by Nero's Domus Aurea, depicting themes of alchemy and rural ceremonies through grotesque decorations.
