Cento, a charming little town, is strategically located between Bologna, Modena, and Ferrara, three cities abundant in art, history, and culture. Known as the birthplace of the famous Baroque painter Guercino, Cento still preserves many remnants of its artistic heritage, such as the Civic Art Gallery and the magnificent Rocca, a striking medieval structure that overlooks the historic center.
As you stroll through the town's streets, you will encounter historic buildings, arcades, and squares that embody the vibrant and welcoming spirit of the Emilian tradition. One of the most famous events is the Cento Carnival, which is twinned with the one in Rio de Janeiro and attracts visitors from all over Italy each year, thanks to its elaborate floats and festive atmosphere.
The surrounding area also offers significant gastronomic experiences, with cured meats, cheeses, and traditional dishes like tortellini and lasagna taking center stage in a cuisine that reflects the region's identity. Within a short drive, you can reach both the quiet, fertile countryside, ideal for walking and cycling, and the artistic cities of Emilia, known for their architectural and museum treasures.
Due to its central location, Cento serves as an excellent starting point for exploring Emilia-Romagna, blending the tranquility of a small town with the rich cultural and culinary offerings of its more famous cities.
