Cathedral of St. Peter, Bologna
Highlight • Religious Site
Many mistakenly believe that the Cathedral of Bologna is the nearby San Petronio. In reality, San Petronio is a simple basilica. The real cathedral of the city is San Pietro, an ancient church (built in 910), now in Baroque style and open to visitors.
It is located on Via Indipendenza, one of the main streets of the city.

The theatre was opened in 1810 as an open-air theatre. It was built on the site of a 16th-century convent of which some parts are still visible today.
At some stages in the 20th century, the theatre was transformed into a cinema. Now it is again a theatre showing national and international theatre and dance shows.
