Romanoro is a small hamlet in the province of Modena in central Italy, administratively a frazione[4] of Frassinoro. It is about 700m (2,300feet) above sea level.

Right below the town flows the Dolo mountain stream. A dam exists at the top of Fontanaluccia, that deviates part of the water about 16km (10miles) downward to the hydroelectric power plant located in the nearby Farneta.

History

Construction of a bridge over the Valoria landslide had been planned since 2006. The bridge was completed in 2007.[5] [6]
