Ferrara
Ferrara is a separate city whose broad Renaissance streets and Este landmarks reward a dedicated outing. Its centre makes sense on foot or by bicycle, with time for the castle and walls.
The moated Castello Estense and the city's long walls make the Este court's imprint easy to read. Ferrara's wide streets and palaces create a different urban rhythm from Bologna's porticoed centre. Its Jewish heritage gives another thread to follow on a longer visit.
What to look for
Castello Estense stands in the centre behind a moat.
Renaissance walls and broad streets shape the cityscape.
Ferrara has a distinct Jewish heritage to explore.
Useful to know
Set aside a separate city outing; cycling is one way to cover the wider centre and walls.
