Discover the largest green area within the city walls with an unmissable visit to the Temple of San Cristoforo and the Monumental Cemetery!

Step into the evocative Church of San Cristoforo, a treasure trove of art and the guardian of a fascinating storey: that of the Carthusian monks who inhabited the monastery from the 15th to the 18th century. Check out the huge, recently restored canvases that reveal the events, secrets, and curiosities of this monastic order – a storey still shrouded in mystery to be reconstructed together.

The visit continues in the enchanting Monumental Cemetery, built on the ashes of the old convent: an oasis of peace surrounded by greenery, where splendid noble tombs guard the remains of illustrious figures who wrote the most important pages of Ferrara's history.

A journey through art, spirituality, and noble memories that will take your breath away.
