The Este Family's Mark on Italy

Castello Estense
Ferrara is:
A renaissance town of art, bicycles, history. A clean city with a University feel and air of prosperity… with more locals than tourists in the streets.

Makes a great stop on trips between Venice and points south such as Florence and Rome.

Duomo

The Splendid Facade to the Duomo

Like many italian towns, the Duomo and surounding area is the heart of the City. Within a stones throw of the Duomo are the Palazzo Municipo and Castello Estense.

City of Bicycles

Since Ferrara is advertised as the City of Bicycles, we tackled the town on 2 wheels (and a carriage for the girls...)
Piazza Ariostea
