One thing to note when visiting the Cappella degli Eremetani in Padova is that not only entry is controlled to regulate the climate inside the chapel, but exiting the chapel is also controlled. This means that visitors won’t be able to get out whenever they want to. Some people might get bored looking at all these frescoes but I was thrilled even if I don’t pay too much attention to the details. Eventually, the doors were opened and I can finally get out. There were already a lot of visitors in the waiting area and I just thought how lucky I was to have been able to visit the chapel with just one other person. Technically, there was security inside the chapel at all times but there was only one other visitor who entered the chapel with me.

Getting out of the chapel, there is a path which brings me back to the Chiesa degli Eremetani which was the larger church I visited earlier. I realized that there was a museum that I didn’t visit and I had a quick look around the museum. Entrance to the Museo Eremetani is included with the ticket so I might as well have a look. I’m not exactly a museum guy since I get bored of it very quickly. This is no different. There were a lot of artifacts on display including ones from the Venetian republic. I don’t know enough of history to appreciate all of this. I merely took my photos and left.
