A city to walk around<\/h2>\n
Your Modena tour begins in \u2018Piazza Grande\u2019 with the Cathedral and the “Ghirlandina”. These three monuments have been declared as UNESCO World Heritage Sites since 1997.
\nModena\u2019s Cathedral is a supreme example of Romanesque art, together with its square and the \u2018Ghirlandina\u2019 tower, it testifies the faith of its builders and is considered a masterpiece of the human creative genius in which a new relationship has been created between the architecture and the sculpture.
\nThe Modena complex is one of the best examples of cultural traditions of the 12th century, where religious and civil values combine in a medieval Christian village. “Piazza Grande” was and still is the political and topographic centre of the city. Where the old town hall was built.
\nAt that time, Modena also boasted a great network of canals, which still echoes among the street names of the city.
\nYour tour goes on in the city centre, where the cobbled streets are full of glamorous shops, connecting “Piazza Grande” to “Piazza Mazzini”, the former Jewish Ghetto area, where you can admire one of the most beautiful synagogues from the 19th century.<\/p>\n

For those who love history and culture<\/h3>\n
Just behind “Piazza Grande”, the lively “Albinelli Market” meets the food needs of the locals since 1931, offering slices of everyday life.
\nWith the Este\u2019s family arrival in 1598, the urban structure of Modena changed to adapt to the needs of the new court. At that time, Modena needed a new urban appearance, with new noble villas and courtesan houses, summer residences and churches. Wide, straight streets have today replaced some medieval streets and a part of the city has acquired a new urban aspect, the “Ducal Palace” has replaced the old castle. Your tour ends in “Piazza Roma” in front of the baroque fa\u00e7ade of the \u2018Ducal Palace\u2019, which now is where the Military Academy is found. <\/p>\n
