San Felice sul Panaro lies on the lower plain of the Panaro River in Emilia-Romagna, a fertile setting that has long linked the town with the farms and market centres of the Po Valley. Its name recalls the nearby waterway, while the broad, level terrain places it within northern Italy’s agricultural belt. At its centre stands the Rocca Estense, a brick fortress associated with the Este dynasty; badly damaged in the Emilia earthquakes of 2012, it became an important symbol of the town’s recovery. San Felice belongs to the Province of Modena, an area known for food traditions including aged cheeses and balsamic vinegar, yet it retains the scale of a small Italian town.
