The restoration and architectural reconfiguration of the Cemetery of the 366 Fosse and the Colerici Burial Ground.

Abstract

The 366 Fosse Cemetery and the Colerici Burial Ground represent, in different forms, two of the most important monumental complexes in the city of Naples. The necessity to carry out the restoration stems from the desire to bring to light the original singularity - architectural and symbolic - that these monuments established with the place of settlement. Two singular works, whose peculiarities appear today obscured by degradation and superfetations that poorly tell the original spatial configurations that have marked this part of the city. The re-signification of the spatial qualities inherent in this place are therefore to be understood as an opportunity to return, to the city and the community, a historic gateway to the cemetery park of the hill of Poggioreale.
