The basilica, simply called Il Santo by local people, was built after Saint Anthony's death in 1231 and his canonisation the following year. Construction lasted several decades, and the church combines Romanesque, Gothic and Byzantine influences. It is cared for by the Conventual Franciscans.
Pilgrims come to the saint's tomb, touching it as they offer petitions and thanks. The Chapel of the Relics keeps Saint Anthony's tongue, found incorrupt when his remains were transferred in the 13th century. The saint is patron of the poor and of those looking for lost things.
The main celebration is the feast of Saint Anthony on 13 June, with a procession through the streets of Padua. The basilica is in the historic centre of the city, not far from Venice.
