About Mantua
Mantua, in Lombardy, is a Renaissance city of palaces and squares enclosed by three lakes, the seat of the Gonzaga dukes.
Mantua sits on the plain of the River Mincio, which widens into three lakes along the north and east sides of the old city, and the water gives the place a quiet, misty mood. The Gonzaga family ruled for nearly four hundred years, and their Palazzo Ducale is a vast complex of courtyards that holds the Camera degli Sposi, a room frescoed by Andrea Mantegna with a painted oculus open to the sky. The old town and nearby Sabbioneta are listed by UNESCO.
Top-ranked sights in Mantua: Piazza delle Erbe, Ducale Palace (Palazzo Ducale Mantova), Te Palace (Palazzo Te).
