Itinerary

Piazza Maggiore

Start by exploring Piazza Maggiore, Bologna's main square, which is lined with impressive medieval and Renaissance buildings.

Visit the iconic Basilica di San Petronio on the square. It's free to enter and boasts an impressive façade and beautiful interior. Don't miss the fascinating Meridian Line on the floor of the church, used historically for astronomical measurements.

Stop 3

The Torre degli Asinelli, the tallest of Bologna’s famous Two Towers, stands at 97 meters (318 feet) and dominates the city's skyline. Built in the 12th century, this medieval brick tower leans slightly and serves as an enduring symbol of Bologna. From the exterior, visitors can admire its imposing height, historic brickwork, and the fascinating contrast with its shorter neighbor, the Garisenda Tower. Located in Piazza di Porta Ravegnana, the tower is a must-see landmark, offering a glimpse into Bologna’s medieval past and an excellent backdrop for photos.
