Top Attractions in Modena
💡 Look for the carved reliefs on the facade called the 'Metope'—each tells a biblical story in surprisingly expressive detail. Mass times mean the interior is closed briefly at noon, so plan accordingly.
💡 Grab a coffee at Caffè Giusti on the corner, a local institution since 1880.
💡 Avoid the lunchtime queue by visiting at 1pm. While you're inside, look for the small chapel dedicated to Saint Geminiano, the city's patron saint.
💡 Visit late afternoon for the best light on the facade. Sundays are quietest.
💡 Come early morning when it's empty to see the light hit the cathedral facade. The column of the Preda Ringadora is where medieval edicts were proclaimed.
💡 Visit on a Saturday morning for the market stalls selling local produce and crafts.
💡 Go early morning to avoid crowds and see the sunlight filter through the rose window.
💡 The museum is free on the first Sunday of every month, but it's already free for everyone every day. The ticket also gets you into the nearby Museo Lapidario Estense on the same day.
