=== Palladio's works === Vicenza is home to twenty-three buildings designed by Palladio. Famous examples include: * [[Basilica Palladiana]], centrally located in Vicenza's ''Piazza dei Signori'', of which Palladio himself said that "it might stand comparison with any similar work of antiquity" * [[Teatro Olimpico]], designed for the ''[[Accademia Olimpica]]'' (Olympic Academy) and begun to be built in 1580, when Palladio died. The wooden scenes are by [[Vincenzo Scamozzi]]. * [[Villa La Rotonda|Villa Almerico Capra]] (also known as "La Rotonda"), located just outside the downtown area * [[Palazzo Chiericati]], home of the city pinacotheca * [[Palazzo Barbaran da Porto]], home of the ''Museo Palladio'' * [[Palazzo del Capitaniato]], home of the city council * [[Palazzo Porto, Vicenza|Palazzo Porto]] * [[Palazzo Porto in Piazza Castello]] (incomplete) * [[Palazzo Thiene Bonin Longare]] (built by Vincenzo Scamozzi) * [[Palazzo Thiene]] * [[Villa Gazzotti Grimani]], in the ''[[frazione]]'' Bertesina
