Itinerary

Main stop

Piazza Maggiore, 40121 Bologna

Start your walk at Piazza Maggiore in Bologna. Just open Ciceru nearby to begin exploring the square that turned civic ambition into a stone stage.

Piazza del Nettuno, 40124 BO

Stand by the Fountain of Neptune and admire Bologna’s Renaissance power move, a god installed to remind everyone who thought they owned the city.

Piazza Maggiore, 1/C, , 40125 Bologna

Look up at Palazzo Re Enzo, the medieval office building that became a very upscale cage for a captured king.

P.za di Porta Ravegnana, 40126 BO

Gaze at Asinelli and Garisenda from street level, Bologna’s leaning siblings built for bragging rights and occasional intimidation.

Strada Maggiore 19, 40125 Bologna

Pause under Casa Isolani’s towering wooden portico, a rare medieval flex in oak that still makes everyone crane their neck.

Via Santo Stefano, 40125 BO

Circle the Santo Stefano complex from the piazza, a layered “seven churches” situation that never agreed on one personality.

Via Clavature, 40124 BO

Stop outside Santa Maria della Vita, where an unassuming façade politely disguises the emotional thunderstorm it shelters.

Piazza Galvani, 5, 40124 Bologna

Admire San Petronio’s famously unfinished façade, Bologna’s civic ego frozen mid project and somehow still impressive.

P.zza Galvani, 40124 BO

Wrap up your tour at Palazzo dell’Archiginnasio. Take a moment to enjoy the courtyard atmosphere and historic exterior before ending your tour.
