Setting and Philosophy

"L'albero a cui tendevi la pargoletta mano,
il verde melograno da' bei vermigli fior."
(Pianto Antico, G. Carducci)

"The tree to which my darling / Would point in childish wonder, The green pomegranate yonder / With crimson blossom bright, (...)"
(Ancient Tear, G. Carducci)

These famous lines, part of "Pianto Antico" poem, are dedicated to Giosué Carducci’s beloved son.
After more than a hundred years, Carducci’s poetry springs back to life where it first saw the light.

The green pomegranate grows again on Residence Carducci’s terraces. This unique Residence is located in Via Broccaindosso, one of the most central streets of Bologna.

Here, in the heart of the historical centre, our guests are surrounded by an elegant atmosphere but, with all the best comforts and services, we make sure they have everything they need. Here, where Carducci’s poetry lives again.
