Palazzo Re Enzo, also known as ‘Palazzo Nuovo’ (New Palace) was built between 1244 and 1246 as an extension of the other municipal buildings. The palace takes its name from Enzo of Sardinia, who was prisoner here from 1249 until his death in 1272. It is located in the heart of Medieval Bologna and has always been the hub of the city’s economic and social activities.
