Towers of Bologna

Bologna's medieval towers are scattered through the centre rather than gathered at one site. A street-level walk links the famous pair with quieter survivors such as Galluzzi, Prendiparte and Azzoguidi.

Why go

The towers make medieval competition and city building visible above today's streets. Look beyond Asinelli and Garisenda: Galluzzi rises by Corte Galluzzi, while Prendiparte and Azzoguidi appear in the central lanes. Seeing several from public streets gives a richer picture than treating the Two Towers as the whole story.

What to look for

  • Galluzzi Tower is visible from Corte Galluzzi.
  • Prendiparte and Azzoguidi rise among the central streets.
  • Asinelli and Garisenda form the best-known pair.

Useful to know

  • Treat this as a flexible exterior walk between separate towers.
  • Stay on open public approaches around the fenced Two Towers area.
  • Check individual sites before planning any interior tower visit.
