Via Orefici and Via Drapperie stand as two of the most enchanting streets in Bologna, beckoning all who wish to delve into the city’s rich history and culture.
The narrative of Bologna intertwines with the tales of its skilled artisans and traders. Through the ages, the city pulsated with ceaseless activity in ancient crafts, now lost but once deemed ‘Arts’ for their significance. These crafts found their places along distinct avenues within the city, with Via Orefici and Via Drapperie emerging as two of the oldest and most pivotal streets in Bologna’s historical center, mere steps away from Piazza Maggiore.
Via Orefici, once known as ‘Via degli Orefici,’ housed the workshops of goldsmiths, earning its importance as early as the 12th century, as documented in a record from 1113. Over time, it evolved into a paramount destination for purchasing exquisite jewelry. Meanwhile, Via Drapperie, originally named ‘Via delle Drapperie,’ hosted the workshops of cloth merchants, gaining significance in the 12th century as noted in a document from 1119. As centuries passed, Via Drapperie solidified its standing as a key hub for acquiring textiles.
These streets, pivotal commercial centers for centuries, played a pivotal role in elevating Bologna into one of Italy’s wealthiest and most prosperous cities. Today, Via Orefici and Via Drapperie continue to thrive, drawing in visitors from around the globe.
Beyond their commercial and historical importance, these streets boast remarkable architecture. Lined with medieval and Renaissance buildings, Via Orefici and Via Drapperie exude a captivating and romantic ambiance.
