Palazzo Papafava dei Carraresi is a palace in Padua, located in the historic center of the city.[1][2]

History

[edit]

It was erected in 1763 by the order of Count Giambattista Trento, in 1805 the property was acquired by inheritance from the Papafava dei Carraresi family.

Architecture

[edit]

The palace, of considerable size and of classical prospect, was designed by Giovan Battista Novello. The setting of interior spaces is unusual for the Venetian area: the rooms are organized starting from a large entrance hall with Doric columns on which a Juvarrian stairwell opens. This setting was retained a few years later in the Palazzo Maldura.
