Province of Reggio Emilia, Administrative province in Emilia-Romagna, Italy
The Province of Reggio Emilia is an administrative area in northern Emilia-Romagna situated between Parma and Modena provinces. It comprises multiple municipalities and towns linked by road and rail connections.
In 1797 representatives gathered at Sala del Tricolore to establish the Cispadana Republic and introduce the green, white, and red Italian flag. This event made the region important during the Napoleonic period.
The Reggio Emilia teaching approach emerged after World War II and centers on children learning through their own curiosity and discovery. This method has spread globally and continues to shape how educators work with students today.
Several train stations connect the municipalities with each other and to major Italian cities, making travel between towns straightforward. Good road connections also allow flexible exploration by car or bus.
Producers here make Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese following strict rules, with each wheel aged for months before it earns its name. This cheese process is so carefully monitored that each wheel still carries a branded stamp showing the date and where it came from.
