Detailed itinerary
1
Our tour begins in the beautiful Piazza Duomo, easily accessible on foot from the train station! Even in Roman and medieval times this was the beating heart of the city of Trent, and there are several significant buildings.
2
The charm of this church is undeniable! Dedicated to the city's patron saint, St. Vigilius, the church stands right on his grave. The cathedral was built in the 11th century and has several Gothic and Baroque elements.
3
One of the city's most important streets, which with its fresh buildings and small stores left and right conveys the true spirit of the city. It is generally a quiet street, perfect for a stroll after lunch, too!
4
We have now arrived at Santa Maria Maggiore Square where the church of the same name stands. We are going to explore it and talk about the famous "Council of Trent"
5
Buonconsiglio Castle Museum, one of the most beautiful castles in Trentino. This castle is a true symbol of the centuries-old power of the Prince-Bishops of Trentino, who chose it as their residence starting in 1255.
Ticket cost: €10

Piazza Fiera, as its name suggests, has hosted the city market since the 14th century. Today you can still see a section of the 13th-century walls that protected Trent from this very square.
