Bondeno is a farming town whose history is closely tied to that of the nearby Po.
The town place-name probably derives from the former name for the river, Bondicus, mentioned in documents as Bondenum Roncaris and Bondenum Diaconi. The term Bondeni was also used for the small waterways that flowed over the plain.
Being a border town it was fortified and within its territory stood many castles, such as the Rocca di Stellata, which can still be seen on the banks of the river.
Today, Bondeno is an ideal destination for those who want to explore the ancient history of the Ferrara area, discover a unique river landscape and immerse themselves in a territory offering numerous cycling routes, especially along the right bank of the Po.
