Caput Mundi: Conservative restoration and enhancement of the Via Pescara/Via Taranto Columbarium complex
Implementing party
Project description
The Columbarium in Via Pescara, consisting of two tombs discovered in 1932, is currently inaccessible to the public.
The project for the conservative restoration and enhancement includes several key phases. Firstly, the currently misaligned and problematic hatches will be replaced, thus allowing safe access to the tombs. The metal stairs will be updated to meet safety standards and to ensure easy and safe access for both experts and visitors.
Furthermore, to best preserve the frescoes found in the complex and to maintain their significant historical and artistic value, a continuous monitoring system will be implemented to track their condition over time and prevent deterioration.
Finally, the lighting system will be renovated to best enhance the frescoes and architectural elements of the Columbarium, thus contributing to the conservation and overall enhancement of this important historical site.
