Among the pieces present is the large sarcophagus of the Aurelii (3rd century A.D.), a real masterpiece of Ravenna's production, and the small sarcophagus of the child Neon, which comes from Voghenza.

Primary students of 1st and 3rd classes had a beautiful journey around the center of Ferrara and the Castrum walking around the ancient streets where the Po river used to flow when Ferrara was born. The children laid a paper river with paper fish to simulate the real one and remember the very beginning of Ferrara.

During the trip the students saw traces of the ancient course of the river Po in the street of the streets of the city center. Then the students visited the monastery of Sant’Antonio in Polesine. During the trip the students made an illustrated travel diary. Later they completed the work in the classroom
Set in the heart of the medieval city, the monastery of Sant’Antonio in Polesine still gives the sense of isolation and tranquillity it did during its early years, when it stood upon an island in the middle of the Po.
The name "in Polesine" does not refer to the area of Polesine, but to its original situation, high ground surrounded by water. The monastery, founded in the early Middle Ages by Augustinians hermits, stood on an island in the middle of the Po River.
Beatrice II d’Este, daughter of marquis Azzo Novello and a Benedictine nun, received the monastery from her father as a gift for her community. Around 1257, Beatrice moved into the convent, where she died in 1264 to be beatified in 1270. Since then, the monastery has been under the patronage of the House of Este.
