Palazzo Zuckermann - Museo di arti applicate e decorative e Museo Bottacin

Museo Bottacin is a small museum located on the second floor of Palazzo Zuckermann. The museum features a large sculpture room, two rooms with 19th century Italian paintings and period furniture, and a large numismatic collection. The sculpture room is the most spectacular part – an excellent selection of 19th-century sculptures, professionally illuminated against a black background. Best presentation of period sculptures I have seen in Italian museums. The number of paintings is small, but there are some major artists – Induno, Schiavoni, Querena. The museum is well worth a visit if you are in Padua. It is just across the Civic Museum with its extensive collection of old masters and the Scrovegni Chapel.

The place is great and there are actually 3 museums for the price of one. The Botaccin museum was a very pleasant surprise. The numismatic collection is one of the most precious in Europe. They have coins from Antic Egypt, Antic Greece, Roman Empire etc

The first rain day we’ve had in a while so we decided to go to this museum. I must say it was enjoyable. It had a lot of unusual things that were from past centuries, Jewelry fans, art the main focus is on the coin but I thought his artwork was much more interesting for me.

Beautiful museum with tons of beautiful exhibits. No crowd, overall 3 floors full of interesting things. There was also a temporary exhibition. A big variety of art does not make you feel bored. Buying the ticket in advance by Vivaticket for Cappella degli Scrovegni, you get the entrance for this museum and Musei Civici Eremitani. It's located very close to the train station. Don't omit it! You need about 1-1,5h to visit it.

Was interesting tour! There is a lot of old furniture,costumes and cultural plates.

An interesting museum of applied arts. There is a lot of old furniture, costumes, plates and glasses.

We did not expect to be visiting this Palace, it's collection of sculptures was the most interesting amongst the historical paintings, clothing and coins.

Really astounding! Awe-inspiring! Truly awesome and makes you think.
