Via Caduti di Cefalonia, 4, 40125 Bologna BO, Italy
Bazzano, Bazzano, Italy The elegance of the old town is combined with the geometric beauty of the countryside that offers picturesque views, nature, historic villas and old farmhouses, a testimony of the ancient agricultural tradition. 30 minutes
Via Contessa Matilde, 10, 40053 Valsamoggia BO, Italy Situated on the hill that overlooks the inhabited centre, is visible when entering the town and it is also the centre of numerous cultural activities, as well as housing the Musical Center and the Archaeological Civic Museum “A. Crespellani” that has given Bazzano the title "Art City". 60 minutes
La Giuditta, Bazzano, Italy A bronze work by the Savignanese sculptor Giuseppe Graziosi, the statue of the "Bagnante", renamed "Giuditta" by the Bazzanese, was placed in the center of the fountain commissioned from the artist in 1914 to complete the arrangement of the square. The controversy raised by the statue's nudity led to its removal a few years later. Only in 1989 was the statue relocated outside the town hall, where it had been kept all that time. 5 minutes

Great fun - even on a rainy day. Beautiful countryside and the castles particularly in Vignola are spectacular. Lunch at the Osteria Della Luna was outstanding. This was an excellent trip and the team at the local tour operator were great - really helpful.
