Faenza
Faenza
Renowned for its majolica pottery.
An excursus of the history of Faenza’s achievements in the field of ceramics can be seen at the wonderful International Pottery Museum (Mic, or Museo internazionale delle ceramiche).
In Faenza 60 art workshops (where you can watch craftsmen and craftswomen moulding and painting) are still working today, in addition to several special schools training technicians for pottery factories all over the world, international events, exhibitions and meetings. Interesting sites: the Cathedral on Piazza della Libertà, the Torre dell'Orologio, Palazzo Mazzolani and Palazzo Milzetti-Bolognesi.
