The story of Palazzo dei Musei
-
The story of the Palazzo San Francesco (St. Francis’ Palace) began in 1256, when the Franciscans, by authorisation of Bishop Guglielmo Fogliani, took up residence at the church of San Luca and the adjacent imperial palace, which had been used as an Episcopal centre since 1195.
In 1272, work began that resulted in the conversion of the palace into a convent and in the construction of a new church devoted to St. Francis. Final
transfer of the property was ratified in 1276 by Rudolph of Habsburg, the Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire.

From the mountains to the plain (their border runs along the via Emilia), from the Grand Countess Matilde di Canossa to Gualtieri's naive painter Antonio Ligabue, the history and culture of this land have always revolved around the country and its fruits: foods, wisdom and values. The typical wine is called Lambrusco.
