Ufficio fiumi e fossi (M. Del Rosso, Comune di Pisa)
Rivers and ditches office, Lungarno Galilei
Particolare Ufficio fiumi e fossi (L. Corevi, Comune di Pisa)The house of Count Ugolino della Gherardesca: nothing remains of the domus from the twelfth century, with a large loggia overlooking the Lungarno. Following the accusation of treason, which in 1289 led Count Ugolino to his death in the Torre della Muda (or Fame), the entire house was literally disassembled down to its very foundations, to erase all traces. In 1301, the land was sprinkled with sand, silt is salt and the construction of any type of building was prohibited. In fact, to date, it is the only green area overlooking the southern bank of the Arno, along Lungarno Galilei.
