St. Petronius Day Special

Hey! Happy St. Petronius day!

 

In honor of the patron saint of Bologna, we decided to do a special episode featuring the history of the city from antiquity to the death of Sante Bentivoglio (which takes right up to the timeline we cover in Maestro Wars), along with some intresting facts spanning into the modern era. Then, we wrap it up with an interesting discussion on the attributes of the city that made Bologna unique in the Medieval and Renaissance world, namely its gates, and it's canals.
