Even if they were most likely “parked” there only temporarily, they certainly did not go unnoticed by an eye attentive to the city’s cultural heritage such as that of Ettore RadicePresident of the Mnemosyne Cultural Association.
What are the bathrooms doing next to Garibaldi?
We are talking about the chemical toilets that have been stationed for a few hours under the bronze monument dedicated to Giuseppe Garibaldi which is located in the center of the Royal Groves a Monzanot far from the equally famous statue King of Sass which is located in Piazza Citterio.
“It is really disrespectful not only towards the character Garibaldi, but also towards urban decorum. Bathrooms cannot be placed next to a city statue” – underlines the Monza historian Radice.
The area is currently fenced off with the presence of other equipment, positioned under the monument in all likelihood because various initiatives are planned for the weekend in Boschetti Reali.
The statue in question cited by Radice is a monument with a long history, created in 1915 by Ernesto Bazzaro to replace the marble original located in Piazza Garibaldi; the latter also boasts the distinction of being the first Italian monument dedicated to the revolutionary.
