Activities to enhance the value of Italian cemeteries on the occasion of the COMMEMORATION OF THE DEAD
On the Commemoration of the Deceased, the Italian cemeteries that are members of the Technical Table for Cultural and Tourist Enhancement of SEFIT Utilitalia, want to once again highlight their cemeteries for the important educational function they play for the history, values, arts and with regard to the protagonists of a certain era in our society. Sometimes defined as open-air museums for the architecture or art forms present there: the busts, statues and epigraphs regarding heroes of the past and, much more frequently than in today's cities, also of ladies, women, heroines who, through their courage, kindness or philanthropy, show us the sense of looking forward by reading the signs of the past, deposited for us in the cemeteries.
For this special occasion, an interactive poster entitled “Cemeteries tell their stories” is published on the website www.Sefit.org, consisting of a series of buttons that launch visual content with the intention of presenting the following cemeteries: Monumental of Trento, Verano of Rome, Staglieno of Genoa, Monumental of Milan, Certosa of Bologna, Monumental of Turin, Certosa of Ferrara, Monumental of Andria and Mantua.
Here is the link to the interactive poster.
