Palazzo Maldura is a Padua civilian building, now the home of the Department of Language Studies and Literature at the University of Padua.[1][2][3]

Built in the sixteenth century and overhauled, it was upgraded in 1769 and commissioned by lawyer Andrea Maldura (1730-1802) to architect Giovan Battista Novello.

In the palace there are numerous frescoes in a non-homogeneous order with respect to the location of the different premises.[4]
