The Manifattura delle Arti was born from the redevelopment of the former port area of Bologna and the nearby proto-industrial buildings that stood here and which represented the beating heart of the Bolognese economy.
After a careful project of architectural recovery and conservation, today the area is home to a cultural center of the highest level, with museums, cinemas and university departments. Art, culture and industrial archeology in all its forms!
