Faenza is situated on Via Emilia, between the sea and hills, half way between Bologna (50 km) and Rimini (65 Km) and at the intersection of the road that links Ravenna (32 Km) to Florence (100 km). It is a

fascinating town best known as the center for production of faience, a type of ceramic pottery that has been made here and exported

worldwide for hundreds of years and is still produced and sold in the town. There is the Ceramics Museum, which is the principal attraction in the town center. However, the city offers also you many things to do.

Places to visit:

Speed, precision, tenacity: these are the skill tests called upon to face the knights of Niballo, ingredients that make the Giostra di Faenza one of the most exciting and demanding in Italy.

The first edition of the Palio di Faenza in its modern version was held on Sunday 28 June 1959, the eve of the feast of St. Peter, the apostle to whom the Cathedral of Faenza is dedicated.

Since then, the Giostra has been held every year on the fourth Sunday in June (in 2021, because of Covid-19, it will be held on 31 of July) by the five knights representing the five districts of Faenza: Borgo

Durbecco, Rione Giallo, Rione Nero, Rione Rosso and Rione Verde.

Ffew weeks before Palio, 5 districts of Feanza organize "Settimane del Palio", to experience the Niballo in an atmosphere of

celebration and conviviality. City is full of cultural and sport events, gastronomical stands and promotional dinners.
