What people say

"It is the oldest park of Bologna and it has always been a location used for performances, games and sport competitions. This park is open to the public since 1664. The current plan is to be dated back to the first years of the 19th century, when Napoleon ordered the architect G.B Marinetti to redesign it in the French style. In 1896, in the park, were built a monumental flight of stairs and a circular basin in the middle of the garden. In Montagnola, there are also centuries-old plane trees from the Napoleon period. The description is taken from I Giardini di Bologna, Biblioteca Salaborsa "
"This park is super close to the train station and it's an historical landmark of Bologna. It's famous for its marble stairs and it often holds athletic and artistic events"
