The Most Beautiful Village in Italy that we admire today is Dozza, in the province of Bologna, Emilia Romagna.
The close symbiosis between the imposing fortress and the underlying ancient residential settlement, which follows the layout of the ancient walls, communicates thatharmony between nature and human intervention that can only be breathed in places proud of its past.
This village, nestled on the first hills that dominate the Via Emilia, between Bologna and Imola, opens up discreetly to the visitor who walks along the cobbled streets up to Sforza Fortress, powerful, massive, yet well harmonized with the rest of the inhabited area, whose plan is like a ship's hull.
La Rocca, the convergence point of the two roads that cross the town longitudinally, has a hexagonal plan with two towers and a perimeter of 530 meters.
