Area information

The medieval layout of Bologna's historical centre is still quite visible, with its main roads, currently connected to Via Ugo Bassi and Via Rizzoli, heading towards the outskirts via the ancient Roman decuman structure. The city offers a lot of its past, such as the ring of walls surrounding the central area, dating back to 1300, with 12 access gates, of which 9 are perfectly preserved. Bologna's main symbols towers are the Asinelli and the Garisenda towers, a monumental complex which dates back to the first municipal age around 1100. Also very important is the ecclesiastic Gothic architecture of the main churches from the 1200's and 1300's, linked to the expansion of religious orders. Among these are San Domenico, San Francesco, San Giacomo and San Martino. In the same period, Piazza Maggiore started taking shape, including the palaces of the Podestà and of King Enzo, the Palazzo Comunale and the Basilica di San Petronio, which was established in 1390. There are also examples of remarkable baroque art, also linked to religious architecture, such as the churches of San Paolo and San Salvatore, and the cathedral of San Pietro, although the latter has Romanic origins.
