Rocca di Roffeno Emilia-Romagna Local Attractions
Town of Bologna
PIAZZA MAGGIORE/ MAGGIORE SQUARE.
This is the heart of the city and the result of secular transformations which progressively enriched it with important buildings. Surrounding the square are: Basilica di San Petronio, Palazzo dei Notai, Palazzo d’Accursio, Palazzo del Podestà and the scenic façade of the Palazzo dei Banchi.
FONTANA DEL NETTUNO/ FOUNTAIN OF NEPTUNE.
This monument of marble and bronze was built by the Flemish sculptor “Giambologna” according to a design byTommaso Laureti in 1563. It represents the symbol of papal power : as Neptune rules over the seas so the Pope dominates over the land. At the foot of the God are four cherubs which represent the Ganges, the Nile, the Amazon and the Danube – the rivers of the continents known to man at that time. PALAZZO RE ENZO/ KING ENZO’S PALACE.
Originally called Palatium Novum because it was added on to the older Palazzo del Podestà, it was then renamed Palazzo Re Enzo, as it became in fact the prison of Enzo, son of the Emperor Frederic the Second, who was defeated by the people of Bologna in the Battle of the Fossalta (1249). Only part of the building can be visited; from the courtyard, you go up a staircase leading to a “loggia” or gallery from which there is a spectacular view. Open: open to the public only on occasion of exhibits.
PALAZZO PODESTA’/ PODESTA’ PALACE.
The present building is a fifteenth-century reconstruction of the old thirteenth-century palace. It was designed by A. Fioravanti and built from sandstone in 1483. The medieval tower reaching into the sky is fruit of Master Alberto’s genius: a true masterpiece of engineering, it does not rest on the ground but on the pillars of the arched Podestà vault. Open: open to the public only on occasion of exhibits.
PALAZZO DEI BANCHI/ BANCHI PALACE.
This was the last building constructed in the square: it was meant as a scenic façade to screen from view the narrow streets of the market lying beyond. Designed by Vignola, it dates back to the second half of the XVI century. Its façade is composed of fifteen arches, two of which permit access to the Clavature and Pescherie streets. Only the exterior is visible.
