Location & what to see

Villa Cittadella is located on Via Santa Maria Nuova, in a residential area of Mantua a short distance from the UNESCO World Heritage historic center. The neighborhood is quiet but well connected, with small bars and restaurants just steps away: Bar la Cittadella is only 50 meters away, while a couple of spots for a quick bite are within 150 meters of the property.

The historic center is easily reached on foot or by bicycle: Palazzo Ducale and Mantua Cathedral are about 1.5 km away, Piazza delle Erbe is 1.6 km away and Palazzo Te, with its famous frescoed halls by Giulio Romano, is 2.6 km away.

Nature lovers can reach the Bosco della Fontana Nature Reserve, about 4.6 km away, for excursions among centuries-old woods. The property also organizes bicycle and walking tours for those who want to discover the city with a local guide, as well as offering activities such as cycling along the shores of the lakes surrounding Mantua.
