  • The Basilica San Petronio in Bologna was built in the year 1388 and got his effectiveness from january 1389. It is located in the very center of Bologna, with its main facade, unfinished, facing the Piazza Maggiore. Dedicated to the holy San Petronio (Bishop between 431 to 450) as a thanking for recovered freedom of the city. For this reason, the church was built since the beginning not as Cathedral, but as a civic and votive temple. As an opportunity for the people to show their devotion to the city it has been also the forum for demonstrations of public religiosity and citizens´spirit. It is the architectural expression of a new beginning of the city history and also and expression of identity of the city and its citizens. 44°29'36.5”N 11°20'35.6”E

  • As a result of a high urban migration and arrival of students the porticos in Bologna where built to extend the inner living space. At a certain point the streets where so crowded of porticos that they became a public space. Now this public space, built from a functional point of few is now an important space of human interaction with also a lot of cafés, bars, restaurants and shops. Protecting also from rain and sun. 44°29'37.6”N 11°20'26.9”E

  • This Piazza, Piazza Santo Stefano, is just one example of many more here in Bologna. First special thing about those places is the fact that in this old, dense city there is just a free, shaded spot surrounded of buildings. Built freedom. Public spaces, without the need of paying entrance where people can interact and their freedom to do whatever the want to: sing, dance, enjoy markets, chilling in the sun etc. 44°29'32.1”N 11°20'53.6”E

Landscape Symbols Author 3: Anna Fernanda Volken

  • Picture 1: 48°44’32.85”N 9°18’27.80”E I chose the old Rathaus because, first of all, it is an imposing building in the historical city center of Esslingen - which contains some of the oldest constructions in Germany. That is possible thanks to fact that the city suffered no significant destruction during the Second World War - so it can be seen as an "architecture resistence symbol" through times of bombs and suffering. I see it also as an expression of a local identity. The Old Rathaus was built around 1420 and it has an eagle on its top, the animal that symbolizes freedom. On the occasion of a renovation, in 1926, there were expressive donations by the citizens - showing the importance of the building to local people.

  • Picture 2: 48°44’35.51”N 9°17’38.76”E The vineyards offer interesting views over the trajectory of the train to/from Stuttgart and awaken a desire to try the local wines. Besides that, this landscape provides the basis for recreational opportunities, like the Vineyard Walk, when people really interact with the landscape.

  • Picture 3: 48°44’43.19”N 9°18’35.38”E Esslingen Castle is a preserved part of the medieval city fortification, which is located above the former and present-day city center. I chose the beautiful view it offers and it is important to say that the entrance is free, which invites not only visitors but residents to just enjoy a nice walk.
