Cotignola

Cotignola sits on the lower Romagna plain near the Senio River in Emilia-Romagna, Italy, where cultivated fields and drainage channels extend across a flat alluvial landscape. The town is the birthplace of Muzio Attendolo, the late-medieval condottiero called Sforza; his career founded the Sforza dynasty, later rulers of Milan. Cotignola suffered extensive destruction during the Second World War, when the front reached the Senio line, and its rebuilt centre carries that twentieth-century history alongside older Romagnolo civic traditions.
