An itinerary in the authentic heart of Cittadella, among historic shops, traditional scents and familiar faces. Walking through streets and squares, you will discover shops that preserve stories of generations, craftsmanship and hospitality. A slow and sensorial journey, to experience the city beyond the walls, through its truest soul.

In the beating heart of Cittadella, along the historic Via Garibaldi, there is a small corner of tenderness and tradition: Segna Bimbi. This business, nestled between the ancient walls of the walled city, is much more than a simple children's shop: it is a place where attention to quality and the warmth of the welcome come together to offer a unique experience to visitors, young and old.

Segna Bimbi is one of those shops that tell the story of a city through its objects: here, among refined clothes for newborns and children, wooden toys with an artisanal flavour, accessories with a Nordic design and textile cuddles that speak the language of sweetness, you can breathe a deep love for childhood. You will not find impersonal shelves, but displays curated like living rooms at home, where each product is carefully selected with safety, sustainability and style in mind. Perfect for visiting parents, but also for those looking for an original gift to take home as a souvenir of the trip.

For tourists visiting Cittadella with children in tow, Segna Bimbi is an ideal stop not only for shopping, but also to discover how local commerce manages to keep the values ​​of the past alive with an eye to the future. And if you are lucky, you might come across one of their seasonal shop windows, always set up with a creativity that transforms the sidewalk into a small theater of emotions.

A few steps from the ancient walls, and easily reachable from Porta Vicenza, Segna Bimbi is a refined and affectionate break on an itinerary of architectural beauty, culture and tradition. A place that speaks to the hearts, even the little ones.

Walking along the charming Via Garibaldi, the commercial and historical heart of Cittadella, you come across a small pearl of the past that still fascinates today for its authenticity and scent of memory: the Antica Drogheria Collavo. Founded decades ago, this grocery store is a living symbol of neighborhood commerce that has resisted time and market transformations, keeping its traditional soul intact.

Crossing the threshold of the grocery store is like entering a time machine. The walls are adorned with dark wood shelves, full of spices, loose sweets, traditional Venetian biscuits, household products and scented soaps of the past. Every corner tells a story, and every object is linked to a use, a memory, a season. Here the word “grogheria” retains its most authentic meaning: a place where you can find small useful things, but also those that smell of home.

For the curious visitor, the Antica Drogheria Collavo offers a rare opportunity: to experience first-hand the daily life of the past, when shopkeepers knew their customers by name and advised with experience and passion. Today, this spirit still lives on thanks to the family management, which welcomes each customer with a sincere smile and absolute availability.

It is not uncommon to find small treasures for sale that cannot be found elsewhere: artisanal liqueurs, local preserves, and vintage objects. A true paradise for those who love slow tourism, made of discovery and details. Even just for the scent that envelops the environment — a mix of vanilla, ground coffee and ancient wood — it is worth stopping.

If you are exploring Cittadella and want an authentic and sensorial experience, the Antica Drogheria Collavo is an unmissable stop. Not just a commercial space, but a living testimony of a city that knows how to proudly guard its past.

In one of the oldest and most characteristic streets of Cittadella, where every building seems to tell a piece of history, you can find Berto Pasquale, a historic business that embodies artisan dedication and a taste for things well made. For generations, the name Berto has been synonymous with quality, experience and tradition, a silent but essential point of reference for those who live or visit this fascinating walled city.

The shop is sober, almost as if it wanted to let the products and human relationships speak for it. Inside, a warm and reassuring atmosphere envelops the visitor: the scents of the materials, the familiar sound of the work tools, the attention to detail. It is one of those places where time seems to pass at a different pace, slower and more authentic, in stark contrast to the contemporary frenzy. The shop is frequented by loyal customers, but it also knows how to welcome passing visitors with the same naturalness, offering a smile and a few kind words.

For tourists, a visit to Berto Pasquale is a unique opportunity to discover the truest face of Cittadella. Here you can observe up close the value of manual skills, respect for materials and the sense of family continuity that still animates certain professions. Whether it's household items, small tools, or carefully selected products, everything has a reason, an origin, a story.

It's a perfect place for those who love local tourism, the kind that feeds on encounters and stories, and that enriches the trip with authentic experiences. Stopping at Berto Pasquale is like knocking on the door of the truest Cittadella, made of people and not just monuments. An experience that we highly recommend to those who want to go beyond appearances and take home a memory that smells of tradition.

In one of the most evocative squares of the historic center of Cittadella, between medieval views and silent passages, there is a small jewel that gives color and fragrance to the heart of the city: the “Al Chiosco” flower shop. Located in a privileged position, a few minutes walk from the walls and the main entrances to the center, this historic flower shop is much more than a simple flower shop: it is a place full of poetry and passion, which for years has discreetly accompanied the daily life and celebrations of the city community.

The kiosk, small but full of charm, seems to have come out of a postcard from another time. It is the type of place that you immediately notice when walking in Piazza Scalco: for its explosion of colors, for the careful composition of the flowers on display and for the kindness with which you are welcomed. Here, every bouquet tells a story: a birthday, an anniversary, a spontaneous gesture of affection or a traditional celebration. And those who enter always leave with something more: not only a fragrant bouquet, but also a smile and a passionate piece of advice.

The flowers offered by the florist are not chosen only for their beauty, but for the meaning they carry with them. Seasonal floral arrangements, ornamental plants, solutions for events, ceremonies or simple everyday thoughts: the range of choice is surprising for such a small kiosk. But the real value lies in the artisanal attention with which each customer is listened to and accompanied in their choice.

For tourists, Fioreria “Al Chiosco” is an emotional stop, perfect for those who love to take home a living fragment of the place they have visited. Maybe a bunch of local flowers to immortalize in a photo, or a small plant to give to the host who welcomed you to the city. A simple stop, but one that leaves its mark.

Fioreria Al Chiosco

At the crossroads between past and present, along the quiet and residential Via Guglielmo Marconi, there is a fixed point of city life: Antonio Michelini, a historic business that tells the story of Cittadella's artisanal and commercial tradition with a firm and authentic voice. In an increasingly fluid and impersonal urban context, Michelini represents one of those addresses that proudly resist, becoming living witnesses to the city's daily history.

The shop — cared for in detail and faithful to its original spirit — stands out for its impeccable service, professionalism and the passion with which each customer is looked after. Whether it is a business linked to tailoring, fine mechanics, watchmaking or other traditional crafts (depending on the specific sector, which can vary in collective memory), Antonio Michelini has become synonymous with reliability, precision and quality over time.

Entering the shop is like taking a dip into the past, but without nostalgia: here time has stopped only in the care of things done well. The visitor who loves to discover the true soul of a place will appreciate the atmosphere of trust that reigns here. The walls tell stories, the materials on display speak of manual wisdom, and the environment preserves that human dimension that large shopping centers have forgotten.

For tourists who are attentive to the intangible heritage of a place — made up not only of churches and palaces, but also of working hands, family stories and daily dedication — Antonio Michelini is a precious discovery. A visit here allows you to come into contact with the authentic identity of Cittadella: a city where relationships still count, where every street has a face, and where local trade is still a shared heritage.

If you seek the essence of a place, you often find it hidden in its most discreet details. Antonio Michelini is one of them.

At the beginning of Via Roma, one of the main entrances to the historic center of Cittadella, a small enchanted world opens up that for decades has given dreams, smiles and memories to generations of children and families: Giocattoli Bareggi Matteo. This historic shop, which has gone through eras and fashions without ever losing its charm, represents one of the most loved and recognizable places in the city.

As soon as you enter the shop, you are welcomed by an atmosphere that smells of childhood and authenticity. The shelves are full of games of all kinds: from wooden constructions to classic puzzles, from trains to soft toys, from educational games to those that recall the great brands of the Italian gaming tradition. It is one of those places where time seems to have stopped, where you can still find the carefully chosen toy, perhaps the same one that today's parents had when they were children.

Bareggi Matteo is not an impersonal shop, but a place where every customer is welcomed with attention and warmth. The owner, a profound connoisseur of the world of games, is always available to recommend the most suitable purchase for every age and occasion, with that expertise that comes from experience and passion. The service is personalized, and the feeling is that of being in a place where every object is selected with love.

For those visiting Cittadella with children, this shop is an unmissable stop: an opportunity to give a special memory or simply to let yourself be carried away by the nostalgia of when a new game meant imagining entire worlds. But even for visitors without children, Bareggi Matteo offers an exciting experience, made of memory, tradition and everyday beauty.

It is not uncommon to see loyal customers come in to say hello, or curious tourists stop to take a photo in front of the colorful and always well-kept window. Giocattoli Bareggi Matteo is, after all, a small treasure chest of happiness, guarded with dedication in the heart of Cittadella.

Giocattoli Bareggi

A little further along Via Roma, a few steps from the historic walls that surround the ancient heart of Cittadella, is one of the most genuine and representative businesses of the city's commercial fabric: Ortofrutta Alessi. A shop that, with its bright colors and intense aromas of fresh fruit and vegetables, welcomes residents and tourists like a small daily market on a human scale.

In a time when food products often seem standardized and devoid of identity, entering Ortofrutta Alessi is like coming home. The counter is always tidy, with carefully curated displays of seasonal fruit, freshly picked vegetables and local specialties. Local products are never lacking: asparagus in spring, red radicchio in winter, sweet strawberries on days in May. Each ingredient tells the story of the Veneto countryside, its seasons and its authentic flavors.

The shop is not just a point of sale, but a place for meeting and relationships. Customers are advised with kindness and competence, perhaps receiving a traditional recipe or a suggestion on how to pair an ingredient at the table. For tourists, it is the ideal opportunity to experience a slice of daily city life and discover the more “lived” side of Cittadella, the one made of small habits and sincere relationships.

Those who want to take home a memory of their trip that is different from the usual souvenir will find here local products perfect to taste during their stay or to share upon their return. Some specialties can be packaged on request: an excellent idea for those who love to travel with their palate too.

Ortofrutta Alessi is a stop that reconciles with the simplicity and beauty of real things. An oasis of authenticity, where every scent and every color contributes to enriching the experience of visiting the splendid walled city.

In the heart of the splendid Piazza Martiri del Grappa, with a privileged view of the ancient medieval walls and the lively city passage, stands one of the most beloved historic places in Cittadella: Caffè Milano. A point of reference for generations of citizens, students, professionals and tourists, this café embodies the perfect balance between tradition, elegance and hospitality.

From the first glance, Caffè Milano stands out for its refined and at the same time familiar atmosphere. The furnishings recall the taste of the cafés of the past, with careful details and a sense of time that seems suspended between the walls. But it is above all the experience that you live inside that makes it unique: here, every coffee is prepared with care, every brioche is selected for freshness and quality, and every customer is welcomed with a smile that feels like home.

The strategic position, right in the main square, makes it the perfect stop to start the day with a panoramic breakfast or to take a break during a visit to the city. In the summer, the outdoor tables allow you to enjoy an aperitif at sunset while admiring the city life flowing peacefully, with the walls in the background and the light caressing the historic buildings. In the winter, the welcoming interior offers refuge and warmth, between a hot chocolate and a chat with friends.

For tourists, Caffè Milano is also an ideal observation point to capture the authentic spirit of Cittadella: here you meet residents of all ages, read the local newspapers, listen to stories of the past and perceive the slow and gentle rhythm of the city. Sometimes, small events or themed evenings make the experience even richer.

It is not just a place to have a coffee, but a true fragment of the city's identity. Visiting Cittadella and not stopping at Caffè Milano would be like passing through Paris without seeing the Eiffel Tower: an absence that would take away an important part of the trip's soul.

Caffè Milano

At the end of Via Indipendenza, one of the busiest streets in the historic center of Cittadella, there is a small but historic shop that has accompanied the life of the city for generations: the Tabaccheria Munari. At first glance it may seem like one of those shops that you find in every urban center, but on closer inspection - and especially after crossing the threshold - you realize that it is a true bastion of local commerce, where courtesy, precision and familiarity make the difference.

Frequented by loyal customers and those who are passing by, the tobacconist offers everything you could want in a cozy and well-kept environment: tobacco, stamps, gift items, public transport tickets, recharging services and a small selection of objects. But beyond the merchandise offered, what makes this place special is the human warmth that animates it. Here the customer is not a number, but a person to be welcomed with attention and respect.

For tourists visiting Cittadella, Tabaccheria Munari is a strategic stop: whether it's to buy a stamp to send a postcard, pick up a local guide or simply have a chat with those who live the city every day, this shop is a point of access to the real life of Cittadella. In an urban context where many historic businesses have given way to large chains, Munari resists with strength, continuing to offer a useful, precise and kind service.

Many travellers say they have received valuable information, advice for visiting the walls or for finding lesser-known corners of the historic centre thanks to a spontaneous chat at the counter of this tobacconist. This is the spirit that animates authentic places: the ability to create relationships, even in the short time of a purchase.

Tabaccheria Munari is a silent but significant stop on your journey in Cittadella, capable of giving you a glimpse of the city as it is lived, with the face of those who live and love it.

Tabaccheria Munari

Walking along Via Indipendenza, a few steps from the gates of the ancient walls and immersed in the sober and elegant atmosphere of the historic center, you come across an inviting scent that reaches the street: it is the irresistible call of Gastronomia Piazza, a true institution for those who love authentic cuisine, made with simple ingredients and artisanal preparations.

Founded on a family tradition that has its roots in time, this delicatessen is a small paradise for those who want to taste the genuine flavors of the Venetian tradition. Every day, the counter fills up with ready-made dishes cooked with care: homemade first courses such as lasagna, gnocchi, risotto and fresh pasta; traditional second courses such as cod alla vicentina, roast chicken, stew; seasonal side dishes, gratinated vegetables, fresh salads and savory pies. At any time of day, the delicatessen is frequented by loyal customers and tourists who are attracted by the scents that fill the air.

Entering Gastronomia Piazza means immersing yourself in a world of taste and passion. Here you are welcomed with kindness, guided through the specials of the day and perhaps advised on how to best heat or serve the chosen dish. And if you are visiting Cittadella and do not have the time or desire to stop in a restaurant, this is the perfect alternative for a tasty and authentic lunch or dinner, perhaps to be consumed outdoors, in one of the many green areas of the city or along the panoramic walls.

There is never a shortage of local products: local cheeses, artisanal cured meats, pickles, preserves and typical sweets, also ideal as gastronomic souvenirs to take home. Some packages are prepared on request, perfect for a tasty gift.

Gastronomia Piazza is more than a shop: it is a small oasis of sincere flavors, where quality and love for cooking can be felt in every detail. An obligatory stop for those who love to know a place through its food.

Gastronomia Piazza

In the shadow of the mighty walls of Cittadella, right near the monumental entrance of Porta Vicentina, is one of the city's longest-standing and most respected institutions: the Farmacia al Doge. Situated in a strategic position, this historic pharmacy is much more than a simple health facility: it is a place that, with discretion and elegance, tells the story of the continuity of an essential service rooted in the heart of the city community.

From the outside, with its sober sign and the building in harmony with the architectural context, the Farmacia al Doge exudes an old-world charm. Once inside, you are welcomed by a bright, tidy and calm environment, where modernity and tradition coexist. If on the one hand you find the most up-to-date solutions in the pharmaceutical, phytotherapeutic and cosmetic fields, on the other you perceive a strong connection with the history of the pharmacy, understood as a place of advice, listening and care.

For visitors, this pharmacy can prove to be a surprisingly interesting stop. In addition to the possibility of purchasing quality products — including local ones, such as herbal teas, natural creams, and supplements based on local herbs — what is striking is the helpfulness and competence of the staff. It is not uncommon for a tourist in difficulty to find here not only what they need, but also attention, reassurance and perhaps advice on what to see in the surrounding area or where to have lunch.

Farmacia al Doge also represents one of the points where the health and social history of the city intertwines with the architectural one: its name recalls an important past, made up of relations with Venice, trade and culture. The reference to the “Doge” is a tribute to the noble origins of the place, a detail that enhances even the simplest of visits.

For those who pay attention to all aspects of city life — even those that normally go unnoticed — this pharmacy offers an authentic look at the Citadel of today and yesterday: a community that knows how to take care, with continuity and attention, of those who live there and those who visit it.

Farmacia al Doge

Just outside the narrowest heart of the historic center, along Via Borgo Vicenza, one of the roads that connects the walled city to its more modern urban fabric, there is a business that has accompanied the lives of families, workers and students for decades: INGA by Sgambaro Paolo. A name that the citizens of Cittadella know well, synonymous with reliability, availability and a deep connection with the local community.

Inga is not a simple commercial business: it is one of those shops where you can still breathe the air of the shops of the past, those where you go not only to buy, but also to be advised, listened to, perhaps updated on the news of the neighborhood. The commercial nature of the business - which ranges from household items, technical products, tools, hardware or appliances (depending on its main vocation) - merges with an approach to the customer based on trust and continuity.

For the attentive and curious tourist, INGA represents an unusual but fascinating stop, especially for those who love to discover the authenticity of a place by going beyond the circuits of traditional tourism. Here you can find useful objects for travel, local items or simply live a brief but significant experience of daily city life. The shop is an excellent window on the true rhythm of Cittadella, away from the crowded routes and closer to the real voice of its people.

The presence of the owner, Paolo Sgambaro, adds a further element of humanity and warmth to the experience: each customer is welcomed with kindness, competence and a willingness that has become the hallmark of the business over time. Relationships here count more than haste, and every conversation is a piece of social fabric that enriches the visit.

For those who travel by bicycle along the cycle path that runs alongside Borgo Vicenza, for those who enter Cittadella from Porta Padova or for those who love to walk outside the walls to capture the most authentic side of the city, INGA di Sgambaro Paolo is a kind and sincere stop, capable of simply telling the beauty of a lively and welcoming community.
