Panzano Observatory

The Panzano Observatory was an observatory in the village of Panzano about 3 kilometres (1.9 miles) to the NNW of the centre of the comune of Castelfranco Emilia, near Bologna, Italy, where Giovanni Cassini worked. It was built in the early 1640s by Cornelio Malvasia.

There is much more extensive information on the Italian Wikipedia page: Panzano (Castelfranco Emilia)#1500-1600.
