Municipality of around 33,000 inhabitants in the province of Modena, bordering Bologna, Castelfranco Emilia has been inhabited since pre-Roman times, when the Ligurians and then the Etruscans settled there. Renowned for being the home of tortellini and with some splendid museums such as the archaeological one, Castelfranco owes its name to the medieval foundation of the "Borgo Franco" (or "Castello Franco") by the people of Bologna in 1226, who built a fortified settlement to defend themselves by the people of Modena.
