Sights in Ferrara
Breathtaking sites with great memories
Ferrara’s central city is home to numerous impressive palaces and monuments. The heritage of former reigning noble dynasty Este can be felt at every corner. A number of institutions and sights bear witness to the Jewish community – once one of the largest Jewish communities in all of Italy – that is still a fixture of Ferrara to this day. With medieval elements, ostentatious Renaissance constructions and fascinating pieces of arts, the sights in Ferrara invite visitors on extended tours with open eyes and ears.
