History
[edit]Medieval towers
[edit]Bologna, the main city of Emilia-Romagna, in Italy, was called the City of Towers or City of the Two Towers during the Middle Ages, because of the huge number of medieval towers. Some of these medieval towers can still be seen in the city. This list does not include the Asinelli Tower, built in 1119 with a height of 97.2 meters.
Modern towers
[edit]In the last decades, the city started to build more modern tall buildings, such as the 1958 "La Meridiana" building, a condominium located in Via Cellini, 70 metres (230 ft).[1] Several modern towers, designed by the architect Kenzo Tange, were built in the Fiera District during the 1970s. In 2012, the Unipol Tower was completed. At 125 metres (410 ft), the Unipol Tower is the first skyscraper in Bologna to exceed 100 metres (330 ft) and is the tallest tower in Emilia Romagna.[2] It is the highest building in the Bologna and currently 7th in Italy.
