Modena


On our way home from Bologna, we spent a delightful day with Krantz in Modena. Although I had lived only 50 kms away for 8 years, I had never visited it before - mistake. The tourist office featured very funky mirrored walls and particularly unhelpful staff. We visited the cathedral, renowned as the finest Romanesque church in Italy, followed by a very pleasant lunch at the Trattoria Vino et Manovella which included a surprisingly sophisticated Lambrusco. We then visited the museum housed in Enzo Ferrari’s birthplace and a magnificent display of Ferraris and Maseratis in the Kaplicky/Morgante designed gallery.
