Bibbiano

Bibbiano is a municipality in the Enza river valley in the Province of Reggio Emilia, spread across fertile agricultural lands. The area lies in the Emilia-Romagna region and features flat terrain with green fields throughout.

Early settlements developed in the area as the region came under different influences over time. Development followed the patterns of the Po Valley with its strong agricultural heritage.

The territory maintains agricultural traditions through six cheese factories that shape the local identity and daily life of the community. These facilities remain central to how people here understand their connection to the land and their work.

The area connects to Reggio Emilia through secondary roads and train service, making it easy to reach from nearby towns. The main train station is located at Barco and links to surrounding communities.

A monumental marble sculpture at the Barco roundabout depicts a large wedge of cheese in striking white stone. This unusual artwork boldly honors the importance of local cheese production in the area.
