Arquà Petrarca, in the heart of the Euganean Hills, is a charming little gem. The beauty of its small historic center, still extraordinarily intact and original, has earned it a place among the "Most Beautiful Villages in Italy." Beyond its objective medieval charm, what is striking about Arquà Petrarca is that, despite the large number of visitors, it has retained its pristine appearance: no souvenir shops, no overflowing ice cream parlors, no loud signs; as unfortunately often happens in other tourist villages, such as those on Lake Garda.

The name "Arquà" was added to the name "Petrarca" with the annexation of the Veneto to the Kingdom of Italy (1868), in honor of the poet who spent the last years of his life here.
