one day in Bologna? recommendations please!

we are considering spending one day/night in Bologna breaking up the travel from Sorrento to Venice. considering staying at the Sofitel Bologna, due to it's proximity to the train. we would probably be there on a Sunday, arriving in Bologna about 2pm.
any ideas for a mini day? thanks

Just walk around the arcades and see the San Stefano church complex. You might want to go up one of the towers, but it is a long climb.

Have a chocolate gelato at Stefino's, via Galiera 49 (not too far from the train station). The most amazingly intense chocolate gelato I have ever tasted.

A lot of things will be closed on Sunday, but you can still enjoy the Piazza Maggiore and the Basilica -- and of course, find some great food!
