Tassoni Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

A famous refuge in the upper Modena Apennines, the Tassoni hut is located between Fanano and the Croce Arcana pass, in the Ospitale valley. It was built in the 1960s on the site of a sheepfold owned by a certain Giovanni Tassoni, whose name was inherited by the current refuge. Open every day from June to September, in the remaining periods it is only open on weekends but an emergency room equipped with beds and blankets is always accessible.

Bell Tower of Sestola

Highlight • Monument

Built between 1853 and 1857, it serves as a landmark in the village thanks to its central location. In the direct vicinity there is a public fountain where you can drink and fill your water bottles.

Inside the bell tower, during the Christmas period a suggestive nativity scene is set up that reproduces the village in miniature.
