About On the Roads of the Saint

On the Roads of the Saint is the historical tourist regularity re-enactment that brings the myth of the Santo Rally, a historic race from Padua in the eighties, back to the roads of the Euganean Hills. Starting from the scenic Piazza Mazzini in Monselice, historic and modern cars tackle a route through the hills to Arquà Petrarca. Under the aegis of ACI Sport and with the patronage of CONI Veneto, the event is organized by Scuderia Ruote Storiche Solesino with Monselice Corse, in the province of Padua.

The return of the Santo Rally

On the Roads of the Saint is a historical tourist regularity re-enactment that takes place between Monselice and the Euganean Hills, in the province of Padua. The event was created to nostalgically bring back the myth of the historic Santo Rally, a Padua-based race that made local motorsport history, to the late eighties.

Historic cars among the hills

The event attracts enthusiasts of historic and modern cars, with vehicles parading and competing in regularity trials along the hilly roads. The start is from the heart of the historic center of Monselice, in Piazza Mazzini, and the finish is set in Arquà Petrarca, one of Italy's most beautiful villages, where the awards ceremony also takes place.

Sport and motoring heritage

The event takes place under the aegis of ACI Sport with the patronage of CONI Veneto and is organized by Scuderia Ruote Storiche Solesino in collaboration with Monselice Corse. An event that combines motorsport passion, re-enactment, and the enhancement of the Euganean landscape.
