Pedrocchi Café
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Pedrocchi Café is one of the biggest cafés in the world, included in a 19th century building in the centre of Padua, northern Italy. Its rooms are decorated in various styles and show the great ecleptism of Giuseppe Jappelli, the architect who designed the building.
The café is historically known for having been the centre of the 1848 riots in Padua as well as for having been and for being still nowadays the meeting point of great artists such as the French novelist Stendhal, the English poet Lord Byron, the Italian Nobel prize winner Dario Fo.
