Cittadella, as a walled town, was born in 1220 from a military project of Padua, which promoted its foundation to defend itself from Treviso, to undermine the privileges of the local aristocracy, and to create a large administrative center north of the mother city.
Subsequently, Cittadella was also dominated by Ezzelino da Romano (1237-1252), Cangrande della Scala (1318-1337), and, after returning under Padua's dominion for 68 years, in 1405 it spontaneously passed under Venetian control.
Today, the Walking Path is complete and fully restored. It is 1660 meters long and is the only fully walkable medieval wall in Europe of elliptical shape. The restoration is of a conservative type and lasted almost twenty years.
