TRENT. “Cleaning and decoration of the surviving thirteenth-century Vanghiane Walls in Via degli Orti in Trento“The group’s municipal councilors asked it with a question”Autonomists for Trento”, Alberto Pattini And Tiziano Uez.
The defensive circuit of Trento, as described in the document, It has three city walls built in three successive periods. There the first wall dates back to the Roman era and dates back to the 3rd century AD During the 6th-7th century it was reinforced and doubled in thickness, so much so that in the 13th century the Roman walls were still preserved.
A subsequent expansion of the urban area during the Middle Ages led to the incorporation of the area around the Vivilian basilica. The construction of this second wall circuit took place around the 10th century.
The third and last wall dates back to the 13th century and was begun under the episcopate of Federico Vanga. It was built to incorporate the districts external to the ancient walls: the burgum of Sorbano, located outside the Portela, the burgum built around the church of San Pietro, outside Porta Oriola, the borgum novum founded by the bishops of Trento as a commercial hub outside the city .
Further confirmation regarding the construction of the last wall circuit is found in a document dated to 1226 which refers to the Roman walls as murus veteris civitatis.
On the part of the two councilors the request to the council and to mayor Ianeselli is that if it is intended “in agreement with the Superintendency of Cultural Heritage, eliminate weeds and black mold stains” who are ruining the walls.
