Parking
Parking in Modena is in part free (identified by a white line) and in part with fee (blue line); the amount of the fee depends on the city area. Payments can be made with coins by nearby park meters or by parking Apps.
Remember that if you don't have an authorization (by booking in a hotel in the historic center or other type of permit) you will not be able to enter and park in the historic center as it is a ZTL (Limited Traffic Zone) area monitored by cameras at every city center gate. For more information on the ZTL click here.
