Viareggio – The construction site for the renovation of the Matilde Tower is nearing completion, within which the city’s multimedia museum will be created. Inspection by municipality and Cassa di Risparmio Foundation
Three floors in which the history of the city will be retraced, with immersive multimedia technology, until reaching the terrace from which to enjoy a unique panorama that extends from the heart of Old Viareggio to the sea.
The renovation work on the Matilde Tower which will become the city’s multimedia museum is nearing completion. A project financed by the Cassa di Risparmio Foundation which, to date, has invested 750 thousand euros.
The construction site was the subject of an inspection in which the mayor Giorgio Del Ghingaro, the councilor for culture Sandra Mei and the president of the Foundation Marcello Bertocchini took part, who had no longer visited the Tower after its external restoration was completed.
After the spectacular interventions to create the stairwell and those of the positioning of the helical staircase which will allow access to the various levels of the Tower, the building works are almost complete.
The second phase of the work will be that of setting up, by Navigo, the multimedia technologies whose contents are curated by Maurizio Vanni.
“The Matilde Tower is the oldest monument we have – declared the mayor -: the one which preserves the history of Viareggio and which has always watched over the city. Restoring it, rethinking its function, making it accessible and accessible on every floor has been one of the most exciting projects of this Administration.”
