Niamh BernadetteVia dell'Archiginnasio <br>
<br>
On your left there is Palazzo dell'Archiginnasio and on your right, a sliver of the Basilica to San Petronio. <br>
Construction started on the Basilica in 1390 - alla Sagrada Familia style - they were still building it in 1514 when a new architect was brought on to build the dome. Legend has it that Pope Pius IV halted the construction of the "megalomaniac dream" and encouraged the building of the Archiginnasio.<br>
The Archiginnasio is one of the most important buildings in Bologna. It was the main hub of the University. It now houses the Anatomical Theatre and The Archeological Museum. <br>
We got the Archiginnasio but the Basilica has never been finished. 😂<br>
Follow for more lazy recaps of Bolognese history!😂😂😂<br>
