Castles and Towers of Emilia-Romagna

This collection spans the architectural evolution of Emilia-Romagna, from the iconic leaning medieval towers of Bologna to the moated Castello Estense in Ferrara. It features the cliffside fortress of San Leo, the 15th-century frescoes of Torrechiara, and the grand Baroque Ducal Palaces of the Este family in Modena and Sassuolo. These structures represent centuries of defensive military engineering and Renaissance courtly life across the Po Valley and the Apennine foothills.
