Eremo di Ronzano, situated just 2 kilometers south of Bologna, is a historic Catholic hermitage dedicated to Christian worship. Its origins trace back to 1140 when a noble lady founded a chapel here. Surrounded by lush vegetation, including ancient oak and chestnut trees, it offers scenic walking paths. The present structure was built by the Dominicans in 1480. Visitors can explore the beautiful interiors, which were restored in 2003-2004. The site welcomes groups and individuals seeking peace and reflection, hosting various cultural events. Admission is generally free, but visitors should confirm the hours before their visit.
