Bagnara di Romagna: Aeroporto di Lugo Francesco Baracca

Bagnara di Romagna lies in the Po Valley, amid the level, cultivated plain of Romagna between Bologna and Ravenna. In the Province of Ravenna, its historic core is notably compact: brick defensive walls enclose streets leading to the Rocca Sforzesca, the town’s principal fortified landmark. The fortress recalls the political rivalries that shaped medieval and Renaissance Romagna, while the surrounding countryside keeps the settlement closely connected to farming and the slower rhythms of the plain. Bagnara is part of I Borghi più belli d’Italia, an association of small historic Italian towns.

Emilia-Romagna occupies a broad stretch of the Po Valley and northern Apennines in Italy. From the agricultural plains around Modena and Bologna, the region extends northeast towards the Adriatic, where the wetlands of the Po Delta meet the sea. Wooded Apennine ridges give its southern districts a contrasting terrain. Bologna is home to one of the world’s oldest universities, founded in 1088, while Modena is closely linked with traditional balsamic vinegar. Parmigiano Reggiano and Prosciutto di Parma are further markers of a food culture known well beyond Italy. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Emilia-Romagna.

Among the countries of southern Europe, Italy stands out for its Mediterranean coastline and cities marked by the legacy of ancient Rome. The Alps form its northern frontier, while the Apennines run down the peninsula and the Po crosses the broad plain of the north. Rome’s Colosseum and Roman Forum recall the ancient empire; Florence is closely associated with the Renaissance, and Venice is built across a lagoon on the Adriatic. Food changes markedly between regions, from olive-oil cooking in the south to rice dishes in the Po Valley. Sicily and Sardinia add distinct island identities to a country whose regions retain strong local character.
