Hermitage of Ronzano, Medieval monastery on Bologna hills, Italy
The Hermitage of Ronzano sits on a hilltop near Bologna's center, surrounded by oak trees, chestnut groves, cypress stands, and olive gardens.
The monastery construction began in 1233 by the Knights of Saint Mary on the site of a 1209 chapel, later managed by Canonesses of Saint Augustine.
Count Giovanni Gozzadini and his wife Maria Teresa Serego Alighieri, a descendant of Dante, established a cultural center attracting poet Giosué Carducci.
Located at 3 kilometers from Bologna center, the hermitage remains accessible by car through winding roads leading up the hill.
Archaeological excavations in 1848 revealed Etruscan artifacts on Ronzano hill, including bronze items, a sword, and horse bridlebits.
