Acetaia dei Bago

Reviewed By Victoiredouce

We took a private tour at the farm and Diego, the owner, explained us everything about the vinegar production process, the history of the family business and the difference of traditional balsamico vinegar and aceto di balsamico di modena. We were impressed by his passion and the time he took for us. We were invited to try all different kinds of his vinegar, recepie recommendations included. Diego was super friendly and enthusiastic. What he and his family does is nothing but impressive. If you have the chance, visit their site just outside Vignola. Truly authentic!!

Rocca di Vignola

On a sandstone spur, this fortress stands over the Panaro valley. Documented back to 1178, it is one of the most interesting examples of fortification architecture in Emilia. In the fourteenth century it belonged to the Este family of Ferrara, but in 1401 they donated it to the Uguccione Contrari family who turned it into a refined mansion. In 1577, the Fortress was handed over to the Boncompagni family. Purchased by the Cassa di Risparmio di Vignola bank in 1965, it was handed over to the Vignola Foundation in 1998. The massive quadrilateral structure spread over five floors, with three corner towers – Nonantola, Donne and Pennello – is encircled by projections for plunging defence, typical of the XV century. In the courtyard, the small fortress stands to the left and open the Contrari and Grassoni halls. Winter opening times. Week days: 9:00/12:00 – 14:30/18:00. 0/12:00 – 15:30/19:00Holidays: 10:30/13:00 – 15:30/19:00. Closed on Mondays. Free admission

I have now visited three fortresses named “La Rocca” in Emilia–Romagna and the one in Vignola is by far the best. The most fun part is climbing the maze of stairs up to the three towers. There is no one path through the many rooms in the fortress; so, you’re kind of on your own to figure out how to navigate your way through the fortress. But, what I really appreciated was the signage in each room (in both Italian and English) which provides a clear and concise description of the purpose of each room and of the artwork on the walls / ceilings. This is absolutely the number one attraction in Vignola and a good reason to include the city of Vignola in your itinerary.
