COMMUNAL PALAZZO
Set in a group of buildings built between the 11th and 15th centuries, the majestic town hall's lounges are worth a look for the frescoes and paintings that decorate them. Don't miss, in one of the rooms, the Secchia Rapita (the removed bucket), a testimony to the old antagonism between Modena and Bologna: wishing to bring the humiliation of the Bolognese to a climax, the soldiers of Modena succeeded in 1325 in entering the city and stealing a bucket, a sign that the Bolognese were not even capable of protecting the most humble object!
