The tour starts at the Archiginnasio Palace, the main office of the University of Bologna, the oldest university in the world. Next, you'll visit Piazza Maggiore, home to the Basilica of San Petronio, followed by Piazza del Nettuno, surrounded by three administrative buildings. The itinerary includes Palazzo del Podestà, now the Bargello Museum, and the Captain of the People’s palace.
