Basilica of Santo Stefano: Seven Interconnected Ancient Chapels

★ 4.8 (400)

Don't visit expecting a single church. This complex is a maze of seven interconnected medieval chapels and courtyards that feel like a time warp. Skip the paid audio guides if you’re short on cash; just wander the dimly lit corridors and find the Pilate's Courtyard. It takes about an hour to fully explore. Sunset hits the brick facades perfectly. It’s quiet, atmospheric, and miles better than the crowded Piazza Maggiore. Don't miss the weirdly specific 13th-century relics.

Address: Via Santo Stefano, 24, Bologna, Emilia-Romagna, 40125
