Sabbiuno War Memorial commemorates the execution of 53 Italian partisans by German forces, in two groups on December 14 and 23, 1944. The partisans were largely members of the Gruppi di Azione Patriottica (GAP) and the 63a Brigate Bolero from the communities of Anzola, Calderara di Reno, and Amola di Piano, north-east of Bologna; they were captured by anti-partisan forces in the Winter of 1944 and executed.

The Sanctuary of San Luca, located on Colle della Guardia, has been the symbol of Bologna as well as a place of religious worship for centuries. It is connected to the city centre by a road that, starting from Porta Saragozza, unwinds for four kilometres with a portico that boasts over 600 archways and is the longest in the world. Together with the other city porticoes, it was included in UNESCO World Heritage Site list in 2021.
