Casalfiumanese (Romagnol: Casêl Fiumanés) is a comune (municipality) in the Metropolitan City of Bologna in the Italian region Emilia-Romagna, located about 30 kilometres (19 mi) southeast of Bologna.

Casalfiumanese borders the following municipalities: Borgo Tossignano, Castel del Rio, Castel San Pietro Terme, Dozza, Fontanelice, Imola, Monterenzio. A reinforced concrete bridge over the Santerno River connects Casalfiumanese to Fontanelice.[4]

Near the end of World War Two, during the Spring Offensive in Italy, Casalfiumanese was liberated by American troops and Italian soldiers of the "Nembo Division" on 12 April 1945.
