Fusignano () is a comune in the province of Ravenna (Emilia-Romagna) in Italy. It is located on the river Senio.

==History== The city was created in 1250 by count Bernardino of Cunio after a flood which had destroyed his castle at Donigallia. After several passages of property in the hands of local noble families, the castle of Fusignano was transferred to the Este family in 1445.
