The Municipality of Modena, in 2003, wanted to pay homage to Traditional Balsamic Vinegar by starting, with the skilful collaboration of the Traditional Balsamic Vinegar Consortium, an acetaia that houses three "Batterie": two smaller ones, with six barrels each, which have took its names from the Secchia and Panaro rivers and one with ten barrels dedicated to the Ghirlandina Tower. The Acetaia, located in the attic of the Palazzo Comunale, also houses three large barrique barrels, the 100 and 200 liter mother barrels that are used to fill in the smaller casks and which have taken the name of "Rezdore", and various objects related to vinegar culture, including some tragni, the traditional glazed terracotta pots to store vinegar.
