Carducci House (Bologna)

Italy / Emilia-Romagna / Bologna / Piazza Giosuè Carducci, 5
 palace, historical building
The Carducci House building dates back to the 16th century and witnesses an over two century-old history as a cult place. It is placed in the glacis of the ancient city walls between Porta Maggiore and Porta Santo Stefano. The conservative restoration carried out in the years 1987-1988 by the Historical-Monumental Building Service of the Municipality of Bologna, in fact, highlighted its former setup as a church, dwelling and Oratory of the Brotherhood of St. Mary of Pity, also called "of Piombo" (Lead) to honour an image of Pity carved on a lead plate found here on June 12th, 1502.
