Fanano, Mountain commune in Province of Modena, Italy
Fanano stretches across 89 square kilometers of land in the Modenese Apennines, featuring several districts including Canevare, Fellicarolo, and Ospitale at 640 meters elevation.
The San Silvestro watch tower and the Baroque church of San Colombano represent the architectural development of Fanano through different historical periods.
