Encyclopedic overview

Gaggio Montano (Bolognese: Gâg) is a comune (municipality) in the Metropolitan City of Bologna in the Italian region of Emilia-Romagna. It is located in the Bolognese Apennines, about 45 kilometres (28 mi) south-west of Bologna. The historical centre developed around the Sasso di Rocca, an ophiolitic rock outcrop overlooking the Silla and Reno valleys. The town's best-known landmark is the Lighthouse of the Fallen of the Mountains, built on the summit of the rock in 1952 as a war memorial.

Gaggio Montano borders the following municipalities: Castel d'Aiano, Castel di Casio, Grizzana Morandi, Lizzano in Belvedere, Montese, Alto Reno Terme and Vergato.
