- Mercato di Mezzo - Since the Middle Ages, the Mercato di Mezzo has been a hub of flavors, gatherings, commerce, memories, and the city’s gastronomic traditions. After Italy’s unification, it became the city’s first covered market. Following a redevelopment in 2014, it now offers a space to purchase or enjoy exquisite food and wine products and dishes on-site. Open daily from 8:30 AM to midnight, it frequently hosts tastings and events related to food culture.
- Mercato delle Erbe - The Herb Market in Bologna, as it stands today, was designed in 1910 by engineer Arturo Carpi and Luigi Mellucci. Inside, the traditional food stalls known as “treccole” were permanently relocated from Piazza Maggiore. Today, it offers a wide variety of spices and food delicacies from all over Italy.
- Piazza Maggiore - The heart of the city, Piazza Maggiore, is the result of centuries of transformations that have gradually enriched it with significant buildings: the Basilica of San Petronio, the Palazzo dei Notai, the Palazzo d’Accursio, the Palazzo del Podestà, and the Palazzo dei Banchi.
Dating back to the 1200s, the Municipality began acquiring houses and land to create a square that would represent the importance of the municipal institution and unite various city activities (exchanges, trade, and services of various kinds). The guide will share the city’s history, starting with the main palaces and monuments surrounding this square.
