“A physically challenged tourist is nevertheless a tourist first and foremost, a person intent onspending a pleasant holiday in a pleasant place which is capable of satisfying his wishes andexpectations”. (CARE News no.2, October 2005).

“Bologna, una per tutti” arises from a project by the Province of Bologna which has amongits primary objectives the inclusion of physically challenged persons. It aims to create syner-gies and links within the public body and with Associations representing physically challengedpersons. This publication is a product of these “links”, since it is intended to be read by every-one, by all those who know and live in Bologna, no matter what their special needs may be.Three tourist itineraries are proposed here:

The Classic Itinerary: Streets, Churches and Buildings (violet itinerary)The Towers (green itinerary)The Waters (sky-blue itinerary)

They are obviously important for those wishing to visit the city, but they have an additionalfeature: they have been conceived, tested and constructed in such a way as to be fol-lowed even by those using a wheel-chair or who need to be accompanied. This book is not specifically an instrument intended for physically challenged persons, it is apublication conceived for all tourists, including physically challenged ones. It is an “integrat-ed” map, and it contains the extra indications necessary to make Bologna a tourist city whichwelcomes and attends to everybody’s needs.The three itineraries were conceived to be accessible from the beginning, though it must notbe forgotten that they have been developed in a medieval city. Bologna is characterized byits arcades and its alleyways, but also by its ups and downs, by its paved streets with their of-ten irregular stones. Those following these itineraries may therefore encounter certain signsof the city’s history, which have nevertheless have been judged as negotiable and which arein any case indicated in the description of the route. Any steps, which are in any case indi-cated, are never higher than 8 centimetres, the limit beyond which access is considered topresent greater difficulties. Lastly, a banner appears at the beginning of each itinerary showing the length of each route.The numbers in brackets which can be seen in the three texts indicate the distance in metresfrom the starting point to the stage specifically described. This will allow users to check thedistances against the time at their personal disposition. The visitability of the places is to be understood in tourist terms, that is to say in terms ofthe public opening hours of the structure. It is not to be confused with physical accessibil-ity, by which it is meant that the structure has the requisites to allow visits even by personswith challenged capacity of movement.For this purpose, then, all places shown in bold type in the texts of the itineraries are vis-itable and are considered accessible to everybody except when specifically indicated.Places which are not included in the proposed itineraries, if visitable, are shown as accessi-ble only when they are completely so. A suitable symbol indicates non-visitable places. Allinformation derives from field tests, from the declarations of those managing the places, orfrom dedicated sources.

The following brief symbology has been used in the descriptive list below the map:AccessibileAccessible from another entranceNot visitableAudio-guide

CultureBologna’s cultural vocation has its roots in a long-distant past. Itis the seat of the oldest European university, attended by a hun-dred thousand students and which celebrated the ninth cente-nary of its foundation in 1988. “European City of Culture” in 2000,Bologna was also recognized as a “Creative City of Music” by UNESCO in 2006.

Its network of libraries, museums, cinemas and theatres is vast. Three examples will haveto suffice: the Biblioteca Sala Borsa, a cultural and multimedia space overlooking PiazzaNettuno, the MAMbo, heir to the Galleria d’Arte Moderna, inaugurated in 2007, and theTeatro Comunale, a sanctuary of opera since 1763.The tenth muse also has its home in Bologna thanks to the presence of the CinetecaComunale. Custodian of the Charlie Chaplin and Pier Paolo Pasolini Archives, every yearit organizes and hosts important exhibitions and festivals dedicated to the cinema. Bolognais the native or adopted city of three major personalities who left their mark on 20th cen-tury Italian culture: Giosuè Carducci, Giorgio Morandi and Guglielmo Marconi. To passthrough the places in which they expressed their genius and to visit the museums dedi-cated to them in the city and the Province is an unmissable experience for all lovers ofart and science, as well as an ideal trip for a school outing. Furthermore, entrance toBologna’s Municipal Museums is free.

Green Bologna To the south of Bologna, the hills represent a green reserve only afew minutes away from the old city centre, with meadows, woodsand terraces from which can be admired a landscape stretchingfrom the city roofs to the lower Po plain and leading to the sum-mits of the Alpine foothills of Veneto.But the old city centre, too, conceals unexpected oases of green

behind its red medieval walls; strolling among its streets, alleys and piazzas, it is not unusu-al to catch sight of ancient gardens, some of them open to the public.Within the city walls, too, are the Botanical Garden, the Guasto and Baraccano gardens andthe park of the Montagnola, which hosts Bologna’s most famous market on Fridays andSaturdays.In a central position, too, are the Gardens of Villa Casarini and the Giardini Margherita, thecity park par excellence: inaugurated in 1879 and dedicated to Queen Margherita, the parkshows evident links with the English or romantic garden, evoked by the strong visual impactof its harmonies and contrasts of leaves and plants.Moving slightly outside the city centre, Villa Angeletti and Villa Spada are to be sought. Avisit to Villa Ghigi and the Cavaioni Park on the Bolognese hills is worth making. The Parcodella Chiusa, also known as Parco Talon, is to be found at Casalecchio di Reno, while theParco dei Cedri is at San Lazzaro di Savena.

Gastronomy & Wines “When you hear speak of Bologna cuisine make a bow, for it de-serves it”. These are the words of Pellegrino Artusi, author of thecelebrated “La Scienza in cucina e l’Arte di Mangiar bene”, whichso lauded the city’s gastronomy in the 19th century. For Bolognais versed in the art of cooking no less than that of learning, andthe specialities of its cuisine are famous throughout the world.

It is enough to speak of tagliatelle, ragù, tortellini or mortadella (elsewhere known sim-ply as “Bologna”) for the mind and palate to evoke Bologna at once.The “Learned”, then, but also the “Fat”, the title which the city earned itself in the pastas a result of the abundance of its characteristic products and dishes, the warmth of itstaverns and restaurants and the wealth displayed in the windows of its traditional del-icatessen shops, visited and photographed as authentic museums of local culture. And to accompany the dishes of the restaurants and taverns under the arcades of theold city centre, the hills of Bologna and Imola offer noble and ancient wines such as theAlbana, the Trebbiano, the Barbera and the Sangiovese, which ideally match the flavoursof the territory of Emilia Romagna. A classic combination is that of tortellini in brothand a good bottle of Pignoletto, considered the King of the wines of the Bologna hills.

EventsBologna is a lively and stimulating city, with scores of events onits playbill every day, from exhibitions to concerts, from theatreshows to congresses and trade fairs. Along its forty kilometres ofarcades, beneath its towers, in its piazzas, parks and gardens, thecity pulses with life, day and night. The old city centre foreverswarms with people crowding its taverns and meeting-places of-

fering live music, filling its cinemas and theatres, visiting its art galleries, strolling amongits open-air markets, shops and boutiques.Throughout the year Bologna is the seat of important national and international events.In January there is Arte Fiera, the international fair of contemporary art. For lovers of thecinema there is the “Future Film Festival” in January and “Il Cinema ritrovato” in June andJuly, which shows rare period films in suggestive venues of the old city centre. The summer is enlivened by the rich programme of concerts and shows of “Bè BolognaEstate”, while “Artelibro”, in September, is the appointment for bibliophiles, scholars andcollectors of books on art. For those with a sweet tooth there is the “Cioccoshow”, whichin November gathers among the piazzas and streets of the city centre master pastry-cooks from the whole of Italy. And the passion of Bologna and the entire territory ofEmilia Romagna for motors is catered for by “Motorshow”, the international display win-dow of motorbikes and automobiles.

WatersAn underground world awaiting discovery, a true water city whichhas been for Bologna since the Middle Ages a source of wealthand commercial development. In the 13th century Bologna wasthe fifth most populous European city and the largest textile cen-tre in Italy. This was the merit of a complex system of water sup-ply which fed the city via the Savena and Aposa torrents and the

River Reno through one of the most modern canal systems in Europe. The most impor-tant was the Reno Canal, which brought the river into the city from the lock of Casalecchio.The Navile started from the centre of Bologna and was practically a water highway lead-ing to the Adriatic, today transformed into a cycle track following the ancient canal tow-paths from lock to lock. Traces of this intense water system remain on the city maps. The canals have almost allbeen covered over, as has the one natural watercourse, the Aposa torrent, which flowsbeneath the streets of the old city centre and can still be visited today by those seekingan exciting trip in the Bologna underworld.Water has thus provided for centuries the essential energy to feed the city’s manufactur-ing and commercial activities, and especially its silk mills, today reconstructed in theMuseo del Patrimonio Industriale [Museum of Industrial Heritage]. It is not by chance thatthe symbol of modern Bologna is the Fountain of Neptune.

SportsBologna is also a capital of sports. Here traditional sports arepracticed at the highest level, including baseball, cricket andhandball, attracting sporting events of national and interna-tional calibre. But Bologna is above all the Italian “basketballcity”; thanks to its two teams, Fortitudo and Virtus, basketballis perhaps its most popular sport and the ribbed ball outdoes

the football in the city’s sports fields and parks. Football is nonetheless representedby the glorious tradition of Bologna F.C., romantically defined as “the mighty team be-fore which the whole world trembles”.Emilia-Romagna is traditionally the “Land of the Motors” and Bologna is its epicentre.Halfway between Maranello and Imola, Bologna is the seat of Ducati: not to be missedis the Museum of the world champion motorcycle company. Passing from one muse-um to another, it is worthwhile visiting the Museo Lamborghini of Sant’Agata Bolognese,a few kilometres outside the city. And a curiosity: have you ever noticed the symbolof the Maserati? A couple of strides in Piazza Nettuno will unveil for you the Bologneseorigins of the automobile producer of Modena. Another completely Bolognese passion is that for dancing, crowned in 2007 by itshosting the national championships of sportive dancing.
