Headquarters of the Terre di Castelli Union and Queen of cherries... #tuttitaly
Vignola is a fascinating town both for the context in which it is located, surrounded by fruit trees that, during flowering, offer incredible scenery, and for the historical-architectural heritage that it preserves.
One of the castles considered among the most beautiful in the Emilia Romagna region is the splendid Rocca di Vignola; its richly decorated interiors are of medieval origin. The word Vignola has a Latin derivation and means "small vineyard." For experts, this is an apparent reference to the widespread economic activity on the flooded lands of the Panaro; in fact, vine cultivation was one of the main activities of the territory in Roman times.
According to testimonies, it was built in the eighth century by the will of the abbot of Nonantola, who wanted to
defend the territories of the Abbey. I recommend a guided tour to know this incredible place's details.
Among the most typical products of these areas, the renowned Torta Barozzi, invented by the historic Pasticceria Gollini, stands out as a unique specialty to try. The cherries testify that fruit growth remains vital for the territory, with European awards.
A unique village, rich in the Middle Ages and culinary specialties to taste.
