Review & FAQ:
For a truly artistic experience, the Pinacoteca Nazionale Bologna is the place to go. This National Gallery is just minutes from the two towers and is housed in the old Jesuit Novitiate building. With the building’s history so spellbinding, it won’t be a surprise how caught up you’ll get in the fantastic artwork on display. This museum is entirely self-guided, so be sure to take your time as you peruse the centuries’ old artwork. The artwork, while impressive, also holds historical stories. For instance, many pieces once taken by Napoleon were later returned by the Louvre to Italy.
