Overview
Castel Maggiore is an Italian commune in the Metropolitan City of Bologna, Emilia-Romagna, northern Italy, located 9 kilometres (6 mi) north of the centre of Bologna. Though its name recalls a translation like Great Castle, the name is actually derived from the earlier name Castaniolo Maggiore, which means "Bigger Chestnut Tree", in relation to another nearby village still today named "Castagnolino", meaning "Small Chestnut Tree".
