The Italian Environmental Fund (FAI)
will celebrate its 50th anniversary with events planned for the
33th edition of the Spring Days at unique locations including
Rome's Palazzo Farnese, seat of the French Embassy, and Villa
Rosebery in Naples, which is surrounded by a large park with an
English-style garden that has belonged to the Italian presidency
since 1957.
The association, which works to restore and preserve Italy's
artistic and environmental treasures, will offer on March 22-23
itineraries in 750 locations across 450 cities that will be
exceptionally open thanks to 16,000 volunteer tour guides.
The sites will include the contemporary Libeskind Tower in
Milan, the Svevo Castle in the Puglia city of Brindisi and
Turin's Royal Palace.
Other itineraries that are part of this year's Spring Days will
explore the Abruzzo village of Loreto Aprutino, with its
beautiful Church of Santa Maria in Piano, and Sicily's
Gibellina, near Trapani, the Italian Capital of Contemporary Art
in 2026.
Naturalistic tours will showcase, among others, the stunning
landscapes of Umbria's Gola del Bottaccione and the Calanchi di
Alianello in Aliano, near Matera.
