La localit\u00e0 \u00e8 nota come citt\u00e0 dei Pico, nobili signori che mantennero il dominio della citt\u00e0 per ca 400 anni, dal 1311 al 1710 circa. La continuit\u00e0 della dinastia unitamente al lungo esercizio del governo consentirono un notevole sviluppo della citt\u00e0 contribuendo ad un grado notevole di floridezza. Del periodo si possono visitare il Duomo, il Palazzo Comunale, l\u2019Oratorio del Santissimo Sacramento, la Chiesa di San Francesco, l\u2019Oratorio della Beata Vergine della Porta, la Chiesa del Ges\u00f9, con l\u2019annesso collegio dei Gesuiti, oggi sede della Biblioteca, nonch\u00e8 l’antico castello divenuto sede del Museo Civico. Lo spazio museale raduna molte testimonianze pittoriche provenienti dalle raccolte dei Pico, da famiglie della Corte ducale e dalle chiese dell\u2019antica capitale. In seguito agli eventi sismici del maggio 2012, il centro storico di Mirandola ha subito gravi danni. Il castello, le chiese e molti palazzi storici hanno subito gravissimi danni strutturali. Attualmente \u00e8 in corso la ristrutturazione.<\/p>\n

Mirandola originated as a Renaissance city-fortress. For four centuries it was the seat of an independent principality (first a county, then a duchy), a possession of the Pico family, whose most outstanding member was the polymath Giovanni Pico della Mirandola (1463\u201394). It was besieged two times: in 1510 and 1551. It was acquired by the Duchy of Modena in 1710. The city started to decay after the castle was destroyed in 1714. From the period you can visit the Cathedral, the Town Hall, the Oratory of the Blessed Sacrament, the Church of San Francesco, the Oratory of the Blessed Virgin of the Door, the Church of Jesus, with the adjoining Jesuit college, today the seat of the Library, as well as the ancient castle that became the seat of the Civic Museum. The museum space brings together many pictorial testimonies from the collections of the Pico family, from the families of the ducal court and from the churches of the ancient capital. On 29 May 2012, a powerful earthquake hit the Mirandola area. It killed at least 17 people and injured 200, it collapsed churches and factories, the castle and several historic buildings have suffered serious structural damage. The renovation is currently underway. The 5.8 magnitude quake left 14,000 people homeless.<\/p>\n","modified":"2018-06-29T12:16:10","color":"","icon":"","noDetails":false,"noInteraction":false,"image":"https:\/\/cyclando.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Mirandola1-1024x768.jpg","taxonomy":{"webmapp_category":[13]},"accessibility":{"mobility":{"check":false,"description":""},"hearing":{"check":false,"description":""},"vision":{"check":false,"description":""},"cognitive":{"check":false,"description":""},"food":{"check":false,"description":""}},"related_url":["http:\/\/www.mirandola.eu\/"],"locale":"it","source":"https:\/\/cyclando.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/poi\/20201","wp_edit":"http:\/\/cyclando.com\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=20201&action=edit","translations":{"en":{"id":20255,"name":"Mirandola","web":"https:\/\/cyclando.com\/\/mirandola\/?lang=en","source":"https:\/\/cyclando.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/poi\/20255","description":"
