Article
Grizzana Morandi (Medial Mountain Bolognese: Grizèna) 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 30 km (19 mi) southwest of Bologna, between the valleys of the Reno and Setta rivers.
The municipality was known as Tavernola Reno until 1883, then as Grizzana until 1985, when Morandi was added in honour of the painter Giorgio Morandi, who had a long connection with the village and its landscape.
