Enzo Ferrari’s birthplace museum combines historic workshops and a modern gallery to tell the story of the marque and its founder.
Housed in a former palace, the civic museum displays archaeology, art and local history, making it a strong introduction to Modena.
This gallery in Palazzo dei Musei presents paintings and decorative arts, with works connected to Emilia and wider Italian traditions.
Modena’s main square is framed by major civic buildings and lively arcades, making it the essential starting point for exploring the centre.
This broad central square is a natural meeting point, surrounded by shops, historic façades and easy access to the old town’s streets.
A peaceful public garden with tree-lined paths, monuments and shaded benches, popular for a break between museums and central sights.
Fresh egg pasta parcels filled with pork, prosciutto and Parmigiano Reggiano, traditionally served in rich capon broth. A festive Modenese classic.
Small stuffed pasta, often with pork, mortadella and Parmigiano Reggiano, usually dressed with cream or ragù. A staple of home cooking in Modena.
A boiled pork sausage made with pork rind, served sliced with lentils or mashed potato. It is a traditional winter speciality in Emilia.
Refined restaurant in the city centre focused on contemporary interpretations of Emilian cuisine, with tasting menus and attentive service.
Elegant long-running restaurant serving refined Emilian dishes, especially handmade pasta and seasonal specialities, in a polished setting.
Historic central trattoria known for tortellini, bollito and other Modenese classics in a warm, traditional dining room.
Moderate for Italy: dining is fair value, but central hotels can be pricey. Local buses are affordable, making Modena cheaper than Milan or Florence for many travellers.
Service is often included or covered by coperto, so tipping is modest. Round up in cafés and taxis, or leave 5-10% in restaurants for very good service.
