Historically, it wasn’t until the 1950s that the Tour de France pelotons ventured beyond the borders of France. And for the first time in the event’s history, the Grand Départ is taking place in Italy, specifically in the region of Emilia-Romagna.

Florence and Emilia-Romagna share more than just a physical connection through the mountains. In Emilia-Romagna, the Apuan Alps, the most impressive part of the chain surrounding Tuscany, stretch towards the Apennines. But there is another bond that unites them, a shared passion for cycling, evidenced by three sons of the region who have won the Tour de France: Gino Bartali, Gastone Nencini, and Marco Pantani.

Florence, known as the cradle of art, literature, and architecture, also witnessed the birth of the Renaissance and the Italian language. This city, inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List, is globally recognized for its beauty, with monuments and museums that attract millions of tourists each year. Proud of its past, Florence looks to the future with a focus on sustainable development, creativity, and innovation.

Emilia-Romagna, on the other hand, is configured around the green heart of the Apennines, the Po Valley, and the Adriatic coast. The ancient Via Emilia, built in Roman times, traverses the region from Rimini to Piacenza, irrigating an area rich in culture and millennia-old history. This living heritage intertwines with a present that places Emilia-Romagna among the most advanced regions in Europe, with thriving economic activity in tourism, food, textiles, and automotive industries.

Beautiful and innovative, both Florence and Emilia-Romagna bear witness to a rich past that harmoniously merges with a present full of vitality and future vision.”
