Occhiobello was mostly rebuilt in 1950, after it was destroyed by the great overflow of the river Po. Although being a modern centre, it boasts two prestigious buildings of great historical value, that bear witness to the past glorious vicissitudes experienced by the city. Villa Vendramin, that is now the seat of the local municipality, boasts a double entrance staircase and a beautiful octogonal-shaped inner hall. Its walls are embellished by precious frescoes depicting some scenes from the life of Alexander the Great, that were painted by Matteo Bortoloni.
Occhiobello's Parish Church, that was built in 1620, boasts a splendid coffered ceiling, and it is embellished by prestigious paintings from the School of Ferrara. The altar cherishes a precious Adoration of the Child that was painted by Garofalo.
Occhiobello is situated within a short driving distance from further important tourist centres, such as Ferrara and Rovigo. Not to be missed is the Park of the Po Delta, that gathers outstanding landscapes of great fascination.
