Overview

Strolling through Medicina, you can see the Palazzo Comunale, which was once a Carmelite convent and has been renewed and rebuilt numerous times over the years; and the Clock Tower, which is built on a square of the Palazzo del Podestà and houses the only recognized majolica clock dial from the seventeenth century in Faenza.

Why Travelers Choose This Tour

Yesterday, it was a Castle, within which were constructed humongous and stylish statues that were a representation of the religious organisations and noble residents who animated the town, enlisting the best Bolognese laborers of the 1700s (including Carlo Francesco Dotti, architect designer of the temple of San Luca in Bologna) and scratching the skyline that still defines it today.
Each landmark will carry you to important periods in its fascinating history, and you’ll get the chance to learn about the soul of modern medicine while sipping local wine or drinks.
