Romantic places in Bologna

Bologna's romance unfolds beneath its famous porticoes and across the wide expanse of Piazza Maggiore, where the Fontana del Nettuno marks the heart of the city. The Basilica di San Petronio and the Cattedrale di San Pietro lend the centre a quiet grandeur, while the medieval courtyard of the Basilica di Santo Stefano offers an unexpectedly peaceful retreat. The Chiesa di San Giacomo Maggiore and the Basilica di San Domenico add further layers of atmosphere. Day trips to Castello di Montecuccolo and Castello dei Pio reveal a romantic countryside setting beyond the city itself.
