The Modena complex bears exceptional witness to the cultural traditions of the 12th century in northern Italy’s urban society and it's is one of the best examples of an architectural complex where religious and civic values are combined in a medieval Christian town
Modena’s World Heritage Site includes the Ghirlandina Tower, Piazza Grande, and Modena’s Cathedral, a masterpiece of human creative genius and one of the best examples of Romanesque style in the world.
