Oratorio di San Giorgio

The Oratorio di San Giorgio is a modestly sized chapel located adjacent to the Basilica of Saint Anthony in Padua. Dating back to 1376, it is renowned for its well-preserved frescoes, executed in a style reminiscent of Giotto and likely by his students. These frescoes primarily illustrate the lives of Saint George, Saint Catherine, Saint Lucy, and the Holy Family. The chapel offers a quieter, more intimate experience compared to the grandeur of the basilica, allowing visitors to closely examine the detailed artwork and appreciate its historical significance.
