Modena, Italy The Market And Church At Piazza Della Pomposa

Modena easily became my preferred city for this quick spring Italian holiday, and I will tell about why as I blog along...


In Modena I parked the car on the Novi Park (deal with to position in the GPS: Viale Achille Fontanelli), the great vicinity to park in my opinion because the underground parking is only a stone’s throw away from the centre.

The first component I bumped into in Modena is the little square referred to as Piazza della Pomposa. Leading to this square is a small alley dressed in vibrant orange, pink, yellow and tangerine colours. I sensed a bustling of activities beforehand and indeed a small Saturday farmer’s marketplace at the piazza greeted me. I love markets and this turned into a pleasing wonder. I didn’t but sold whatever but controlled to browse the stalls a chunk.

On the square is a church called Chiesa di Santa Maria della Pomposa. I peeked interior to check it out. Italy is one of the first-class countries in the international for church and artwork sightseeing.

The Romans have built civilisation partly through exploiting the upward push of Christianity. As a means to reach their dreams and spread their empire, which turned into their loss of life as nicely, helaas. But we all can experience the fruit of those glorious a while thru the artwork that has been left in history. I ought to ponder -- Aren't we satisfied we do now not live in the ones dark, confusing and violent days?

What I am trying to say is which you do no longer clearly have to go to a museum to comprehend art and records in Italy. Just visit the churches, small and large alike and be organized to be surprised and entertained. The best issue? Most of the church buildings are free and do now not offer any front charges. You can donate even though in case you want to.

In truth in this Emilia-Romagna trip, I have visited one of the maximum placing church buildings I even have ever been to. In Parma, but that merits some other put up.
