From Marostica to Montagnana, from Soave to Cittadella, the Veneto region is home to authentic medieval jewels: walled cities that tell centuries of history, art, and daily life.<\/p>\n

Within the region’s urban and cultural fabric, these cities represent a heritage of extraordinary historical and architectural value. These villages, though often off the beaten track, preserve walls, towers, and bastions dating back to the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, tangible symbols of a past marked by conflict, trade, and profound social and cultural transformations. Veneto boasts the highest national record for the number and state of preservation of its fortified cities, living testimony to a millennia-old history still perfectly visible in the stones and landscapes.<\/p>\n

Among the most evocative, Cittadella (35 km from the AbanoRitz<\/a> <\/span><\/strong>Hotel Terme) is one of the few European cities with a fully accessible rampart walkway, offering breathtaking views of the walls and the Veneto plain. Montagnana (40 km), with its perfectly preserved medieval walls, is a unique example of balance between architecture and landscape. Este (25 km) and Monselice (20 km), at the foot of the Euganean Hills<\/a><\/span><\/strong>, reveal the region’s historical stratification through castles, towers, and museums, while Soave (60 km) and Marostica (75 km) captivate with their historical reenactments, medieval festivals, and fairytale atmospheres.<\/p>\n

These itineraries, easily accessible from the AbanoRitz, are perfect for a slow and sustainable tourism experience, ideal for those who want to experience the journey slowly, savoring every stop, every encounter, every glimpse. Walking along the city walls, exploring the artisan workshops, tasting local products, and cycling through the Veneto countryside becomes an authentic way to rediscover the region while simultaneously rejuvenating body and mind.<\/p>\n

The AbanoRitz spa<\/a> <\/strong><\/span>experience complements your journey, transforming it into a journey of holistic well-being<\/a><\/span><\/strong>, where cultural discovery and physical health blend in perfect balance.<\/p>\n

The walled cities of Veneto aren’t just destinations to visit, but places to experience slowly, absorbing history and rediscovering the natural rhythm of things. And from the AbanoRitz, the beating heart of thermal wellness<\/a><\/span><\/strong>, every itinerary becomes an invitation to be inspired.<\/p>\nDiscover our offers!<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
