Ferrara holds secrets that few know, details hidden among its streets and palaces, fragments of stories that whisper through time. Did you know that a church in the heart of the city conceals a crypt linked to the family of Dante Alighieri? Or that at the top of the Panfilia Tower of Estense Castle there was once an astronomical observatory frequented by the singular De Chirico brothers?

We will retrace forgotten stories, such as that of Torquato Tasso, imprisoned in the ancient Sant'Anna Hospital after being declared insane at the Este court. Evocative places, incredible stories and a nocturnal atmosphere will make this experience unique, amid the mysteries and shadows of an unknown Ferrara.
