Archimnasium of Bologna

The Archimnasium of Bologna is a 3rd century church which serves as the highlight of Bologna's tourism. The church was built by Countess Maria Della Pigna, who is believed to be the architect behind the design of the church. Today the church houses the remains of hundreds of persons who were martyred in the 16th century for their opinions. The visitors of the Archimnasium of Bologna will find great collections of relics here.

The park is easy to get to with a rented car, which we took from bookingauto.com. When visiting the park, it is worth taking a guided tour, which can be booked in advance on foxiepass.com, which starts at the Chapel of St. Francis of Assyssa, considered one of the most impressive churches in the world.

The church belongs to the archdiocesan church of Santa Maria dell'Orientale which is located in the town of Bologna, Italy. The main architectural structure of this church is the eleventh century stucco building. The interior of the church consists mainly of a mosaic tile floor with frescoes on the walls. The Santo Stefano, or Cathedral of St. Francis is believed to have been designed by the Father Bede for his monastery in the region of Siena, near Bologna. Today the church and the cemetery of St. Francis are the exhibits of the city of Bologna. The visitors of this attraction will find an ornamental fresco painted in the 16th century by the well-known artist Michelangelo, which is one of the most famous renaissance paintings.

There are different fascinating attractions that you can explore during your trip to the Archimnasium of Bologna. The first stop that you should make is the Santa Maria dell'Orientale. Here you will find many beautiful paintings including the Madonna and Child with angels. Among the other attractions of the area are the Santa Maria Internazionale, Santa Maria albergoire, Sant' Baptiste, Sant' Andrea Restaurant, Sant' Antonio Restaurant, and Via Dell Graziella.

Next stop should be the Archeological Museum, where you will get to learn more about the history of Bologna, the artifacts from its rich history, and the culture of the region. The museum is also home to some magnificent models of the ancient Roman buildings. Among the most famous ones include the Arrian Amphitheatre, the Temple of Isis, the Sacred Heart of Venus, the Holy Sepulcher, and the tomb of St. Barnabas. The archeological museum is open to the public, although admission is usually required. The Galvani Museum and the Sacristanum are the other two museums that are present in the area.

For those who would like to go off-the-beaten path, there are options like visiting the Poggioration, the Pigna, or the Archimedes. While the first two are very popular tourist attractions, the Archimedes is an under-used gem and is not as heavily patronized as it used to be. However, for those willing to spend the time wandering around the city, it is definitely worth it. You can visit the poggiorship along Via Di Luca, or simply go inside the Saint Peter's Basilica via Argo Poggiore.

While there are a lot of sights to see and things to explore in the Archimnasium of Bologna, I suggest you do not leave Bologna without visiting one of the many tourist attractions that are located just a few steps away. In my opinion, one must always prioritize location over price when thinking about things like Galvani, Poggioration, or Archimnasium of Bologna. It would be a shame to miss out on experiencing one of the most beautiful artistic masterpieces of the ancient world simply because you did not want to pay enough for it. So, if you have the chance, I suggest you take the time to travel to Bologna, Italy. You will be amazed by everything you will find.
