• La Casa della Conoscenza (The House of Knowledge), inaugurated the 28th November, 2004, is the beating heart of the Casalecchio cultural nervous system. It is a community center, open to all age groups, providing a window on the world through which Casalecchio di Reno connects to other realities, both near and far, in the difficult but fascinating attempt to sustain and appreciate its own roots while simultaneously welcoming the challenge of intercultural relationships and the value of diversifying culture. The building houses the Cesare Pavese Public Library, Piazza delle Culture Auditorium, a Seminar Hall, a Reading Room and an exhibition space known as \"La Virgola\". Its location was carefully chosen to create a clear and recognizable “center,” literally and figuratively, at the crossroads of the two main arteries towards Porretta and Bazzano on one side, and Bologna on the other. Thanks to its location, therefore, the Casa della Conoscenza fully integrates role of cultural and economic crossroads and exchange that has always characterized Casalecchio di Reno. The formal image of the building is completed by the presence of adequate pedestrian structures and by the unique introspective structure of a central courtyard protecting it from external interference.
