Directions
Piazza Maggiore has been the civic heart of Bologna since the Middle Ages, when the city began creating a central space for public life. Its surrounding buildings trace centuries of local history: Palazzo del Podestà reflects medieval government, while Palazzo d’Accursio remains closely associated with the city’s administration. The immense Basilica di San Petronio, begun in the late 14th century, dominates one side of the square with its distinctive unfinished facade. Nearby, the Fountain of Neptune stands in the adjoining Piazza del Nettuno, often explored as part of the same public space. Today, Piazza Maggiore is more than a collection of monuments. Residents and visitors gather here to meet, linger at cafés, hear street musicians, and experience Bologna’s public life.
Before you enter
- Wear comfortable shoes; the square and surrounding historic streets are best explored on foot.
- Check the weather before heading out, as the central square offers little shelter.
- Allow time to explore the adjoining Piazza del Nettuno as well.
What to expect
- Expect an open public square framed by medieval and Renaissance buildings.
- Look for the unfinished facade of the Basilica di San Petronio.
- The atmosphere changes throughout the day, from quieter mornings to lively evenings.
During your visit
- Pause near the center of the square to take in the different facades.
- Step into the surrounding streets to find varied views back toward the basilica.
- Respect any temporary event arrangements and keep entrances to surrounding buildings clear.
