About this audio guide
This guide to Piazza Verdi in Bologna traces the square back to its earliest owners, the Bentivoglio family, who kept their palace and private stables here through the fourteen hundreds. You will hear what happened when Bologna's people turned against them, and what became of the site in the century that followed. It ends with what still stands across from the Teatro Comunale today.
