He entered the Catholic priesthood and was ordained a priest on 25 July 1925. On 17 August 1943, Bagnoli was appointed the Bishop of Volterra.

On 8 April 1954, Bagnoli was appointed the Bishop of Fiesole, during which time he participated as a council father in all four of sessions of the Second Vatican Council. He remained as Bishop of Fiesole until his retirement on 1 August 1977, upon which he took emeritus status. On 24 December 1997, Bagnoli died and is interned in the Fiesole Cathedral.[2]
