Modena
Modena is a town of the Emilia-Romagna Region, in the middle of northern Italy. Visitors are drawn to Modena by its art treasures: the 12th-century cathedral and masterpieces of Italian Romanesque art, that together with the Piazza Grande and the Ghirlandina tower, create a complex of unique beauty, included by UNESCO in the "World Heritage list".
