Famous national and international artists perform permanent works on the walls of houses in the small town, giving it the peculiar characteristic of open-air art gallery. It can therefore be argued that, in Dozza, art and history blend harmoniously.
In the cellars of the castle is the Enoteca Regionale Emilia-Romagna. It is an association that involves more than 200 producers of wine, balsamic vinegar and spirits, public bodies and consortiums. Founded in 1970, eight years later it obtained official recognition from the Region. The activity of the Enoteca is a two-way:

Promotion of regional wine in Italy and abroad, through the coordination and support for participation in trade fairs (such as Vinitaly).
