★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Incredible that this chruch was built in 1100! 3 euros to climb the Bell tower though the view at the top is largely blocked by wire fence. Still worth it though given the price.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Not only is this a must-see in Modena, it's still free to enter!
The cathedral here is the first example of Romanesque architecture, and the scriptures, both inside and outside, are highly detailed. Be sure to look at the capitals of the columns in the crypt and the 4 lions supporting the altar.
Twice a year, San Gimignano, the patron saint whose sarcophagus is in the crypt, is displayed (under glass). Which is absolutely worth a visit.
Also be sure to visit the Ghirlandina tower next door for a great view over the city.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ one of the prettiest Dom I have ever been. It’s in the center of Modena. It is really beautiful. I would recommend to visit it if you are close, even if you are not religious.

Nice view from the tower Torre Ghirlandina with cost of 3€ full price and 2€ only for students.
at the top of tower there was a good local guid that explained some stories of the tower and the city, but it is in Italian only!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Wasn't in my plans, but what I would have missed??? It's probably the most beautiful Romanesque cathedral in Italy, second only to Duomo di Monreale... Staggeringly gorgeous both inside and outside: would rate it 15/10?

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a stunningly beautiful church both inside and out in the main square of Modena. Richly decorated inside including painted wood panels dating back to the 14th century.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Magnificent example of Romanesque architecture, a milestone in the history of architecture, it must be the starting point for any visit to the city of Modena. You can admire the creations of Wiligelmo, a suggestive 16th century nativity scene, the splendid Pala di S. Sebastiano by D. Dossi, wooden benches inlaid with instruments, the majestic column-bearing lions, the crypt, the presbytery area ... and more!
