Step: The Jewish Cemetery

Memorial to Giorgio Bassani

Still in use today, the Jewish Cemetery in Via delle Vigne is the oldest in Emilia Romagna. It's located just behind a section of the city's walls in the Erculean Addition. Inside there are tombs from the18th century onwards. The Tomb of Giorgio Bassani and the monument dedicated to him, created by the sculptor Arnaldo Pomodoro and the architect Pietro Sartogo in 2003, are found in the secluded area.
