Scuola del Carmine, Gothic oratory in Padua, Italy.
The Scuola del Carmine features a rectangular floor plan with raised presbytery, decorated with columns and arches forming a tripartite division.
Following structural damage in 1491, the monks modified the interior layout, allowing the confraternity to obtain a room directly facing the basilica.
The walls display frescoes depicting Scenes from the Life of the Virgin, created by Paduan artists Giulio Campagnola, Domenico Campagnola, and Girolamo Tessari.
Visitors can access the Scuola del Carmine every Tuesday from 10:00 to 18:00 without paying an entrance fee.
The building underwent significant changes in 1688 when two new doorways were added to the south wall, transforming the atrium into a sacristy.
