The map

About this Bologna map poster

Bologna's historic centre is one of the largest and best preserved in Europe, and on a map it shows up as a compact, roughly hexagonal mass of streets. Its outline follows the old city walls, now replaced by a ring of wide boulevards. Inside, the main roads fan out from the area around Piazza Maggiore toward the old gates like spokes.

Beneath the streets run old canals that once powered mills and workshops. They are mostly covered today, though one can still be glimpsed through a small window on Via Piella. To the south, the city meets the first hills of the Apennines, and a long portico climbs to the Sanctuary of San Luca.

Bologna's porticoes, which stretch for dozens of kilometres, are on the UNESCO World Heritage list, and its university, founded in 1088, is often called the oldest in the Western world. A Bologna map poster brings together the dense medieval plan, the ring of avenues and the green slopes rising at its southern edge.

01

Ring of viali

Boulevards trace the line of the former city walls, making a clear outline around the historic centre that is easy to read at any size.

02

Radiating streets

The main streets spread out from the centre toward the old gates, and the smaller lanes between them fill in a dense web of blocks.

03

Southern hills

Just beyond the ring, streets give way to the first slopes of the Apennines, where the long portico climbs to San Luca.
