Introduction
Bologna's Two Towers are the emblem of the red-brick city, raised by rival medieval families eager to out-build each other. The taller Asinelli reaches about 97 metres and served as watchtower and prison; the shorter Garisenda leans markedly from unstable ground and was written into Dante's Divine Comedy. From the top of the Asinelli you sweep over Bologna's endless red rooftops and the flat Po Valley beyond.
