In a small piazza next to the busy Piazza Cavour, we find the Caffè Pedrocchi, a neoclassical building opened to the public in 1831, well-known in student circles and also during the Unification period. It was here, in fact, that the 1848 revolution was set in motion and as testimony you can still see a bullet in one of the walls of the Sala Bianca. It was nicknamed the 'café without doors' because, after its opening at the end of 1916, at the owner's wishes, it remained open all night and today it remains a symbol of the academic city of Padua.
