Re: Today in pictures

A selection of shots showing Santo Stefano in Bologna -amazing old church and ex-monastery which was mentioned by Dante as he visited it in 1284 (I think that was the date!) The brick work was beautiful and the font in one of the cloisters is dated to 730ad! It was incredibly peaceful -only a stone's throw from bustling Bologna center.

If anyone is interested this is a link to show the square and church in my photos!ItalyGuides.it: Piazza of Santo Stefano, Bologna Italy
