Top coworking spaces in Padua 2024

Located in the Veneto region in the north of Italy, Padua is a picturesque city with a lot of history – its Botanical Garden, the oldest in the world, as well as the many 14th-century frescoes hidden in its buildings, are protected by UNESCO. Its university is also one of the oldest in the world (and where a woman graduated from a university for the first time, in 1678), with both Galileo Galilei and Copernicus having been either students or professors there. Culture therefore plays an important role in the city, but so does industry, with about 50,000 people working over an 11 million sqm industrial area.

If you’re planning a visit to the city where Shakespeare, who’d never even been to Italy, set The Taming of the Shrew, make sure to know the landscape better than Will and check out the best Paduan coworking spaces selected for you by Remotely Serious!
