Modena, a city in Emilia rich in history, has its roots in ancient Cisalpine Gaul and became a Roman colony in 183 BC. Over the centuries, it was a duchy, a university town, and home to an important military academy. Today, its historic center, with the Duomo, Torre Civica, and Piazza Grande, is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The city is a major economic and industrial hub, famous for its ceramics, textiles, and automotive industry (home to the Ferrari Park). Modena endured difficult times during the wars, distinguished by its strong Resistance and the sacrifices of its people, recognized with the Gold Medal for Military Valor. Wikipedia
