The Towers of Bologna are a group of medieval structures in Bologna, Italy. The two most prominent ones remaining, known as the Two Towers, are a landmark of the city. Between the 12th and the 13th century, Bologna was a city full of towers. Almost all the towers were tall, defensive stone towers. Besides the towers, there are still some fortified gateways that correspond to the gates of the 12th-century city wall, which itself has been almost completely destroyed.
