Santo Stefano

Bologna is famous for having more than 100 delicious gelaterias, but among the best are La Sorbetteria Castiglione, Cremeria Cavour, and Cremeria Santo Stefano. At these places, gelato is made daily from the finest ingredients, offering a combination of classic and innovative flavors. The Santo Stefano complex, often called Sette Chiese (Seven Churches), is a labyrinth of interconnected chapels. It is a tranquil place where history and spirituality intertwine. I lost track of time wandering through its cloisters—every turn reveals a new layer of its rich past.
