Meldola () is a town and comune near Forlì, in Emilia-Romagna, Italy.

==History== The area of Meldola has been inhabited since very ancient times. The Romans built here a large aqueduct (still existing under the ground) which served the military port of Classis. To the 5th-6th century belongs a large patrician villa which is now under the historical centre.
