Palazzo Re Enzo

This imposing medieval palace once housed King Enzo of Sardinia as a prisoner for over two decades, its austere stone walls holding centuries of political intrigue and royal captivity. The austere Gothic façade dominates Piazza Maggiore with elegant arched windows and crenellations, showcasing the architectural confidence of 13th-century Bologna. Today it functions as a cultural space and exhibition venue, connecting visitors directly to the city's powerful medieval past.
