Passepartour 2019
PASSEPARTOUR 2019 FIRENZE OLTRARNO THE KEYS OF ACCESSIBILITY Florence is a world heritage site and as such it must be accessible to all, without exclusion. Florence welcomes people with physical disabilities due to an abundance of pedestrian areas and accessible historical and artistic sites. It is also unde- niable that some routes of the city-center - similar to many other historical cities throughout the world - may present some difficulties for people using wheelchairs: for example narrow streets, tiny sidewalks that are not easily passable or not homogeneous pavement. To address this problem and provide information on which paths are the best to follow for people with physical disabilities, the Municipality of Florence in collaboration with Kinoa Srl have designed and published this Guide. The PASSEPARTOUR project is made up of four volumes, each describing four different tourist itineraries "without barriers". In addition, the guide provides a map of the historical city-center, highlighting all the areas that can be navigated with complete autonomy, or with the support of a helper. In addition, Kinoa has developed the navigation app Kimap, which acts as a companion tool to the guide for the mobility of disabled people. Kimap can be downloaded for free on every smartphone: the app shows the most accessible path to reach your desired destination and is constantly updated. We hope that this project will contribute to improve the tourist experi- ence for those visiting our marvellous City, opening the doors to its extraordinary heritage. Cecilia Del Re Councilor for Tourism of the City of Florence Florence is a world heritage site and as such it must be accessible to all, without exclusion.

Natural Hazards and Cultural Heritage in Florence: the Slope Instability Story of Monte Alle Croci
Giornale di Geologia Applicata 1 (2005) 123 –130, doi: 10.1474/GGA.2005-01.0-12.0012 Natural hazards and cultural heritage in Florence: the slope instability story of Monte alle Croci Canuti P.1, Casagli N. 1, Fanti R. 1, Agostini G. 2, Margottini C. 2 1 Dipartimento di Scienze della Terra - Università di Firenze 2 ENEA, C.R. Casaccia, Roma ABSTRACT. Monte alle Croci was the scenery of many historical and artistic events since the Roman period and played an important role in the history of Florence. Some of these facts are connected with the slope instability of the area, firstly investigated by Leonardo da Vinci. The current urban layout, projected by Giuseppe Poggi when the city became the capital of Italy (1864-1877), is a response to these landslide problems. In this paper a review of the instability evolution throughout the last five centuries is presented and it is aimed to frame the present monitoring instruments. A large network of extensometers, inclinometers and piezometers is actually working, even if the data are not easily interpretable. Additional information is expected from some new instruments set up in 2002 and from the reconstruction of the past earth handling.

Piazzale Michelangelo: Tra I 10 Luoghi Più Fotografati Al Mondo
PIAZZALE MICHELANGELO: TRA I 10 LUOGHI PIÙ FOTOGRAFATI AL MONDO Una speciale classifica realizzata da Google Sightmap ha voluto elencare i dieci luoghi più fotografati al mondo, tra questi Firenze con il suo Piazzale Michelangelo si è piazzata all’ottavo posto. Per la realizzazione di questa speciale top ten sui luoghi più fotografati al mondo è stato tastato il polso di viaggiatori e turisti per identificare i luoghi che esercitano una maggiore attrazione. In questa singolare classifica all’ottavo posto troviamo Firenze, con il suo suggestivo Piazzale Michelangelo. TuscanyPeople.com - People and Stories from #Tuscany 1 Panorama fiorentino Si tratta in realtà di uno dei punti preferiti della nota città toscana, il punto di osservazione più noto e com- pleto della città. Dal Piazzale Michelangelo si può infatti dominare l’intera città. Costruito nel 1869 su diseg- no realizzato dall’Architetto Giuseppe Poggi durante un progetto di riqualificazione della città che, proprio in quell’anno, era divenuta Capitale d’Italia. Il risanamento comprendeva lavori di riqualificazione della riva sinistra dell’Arno e, in quella occasione, fu progettato di realizzare su un’antica collina che sorgeva legger- mente spostata a sud rispetto al centro storico della città, l’attuale Piazzale Michelangelo. La rinascita borghese della città comportò anche molti altri lavori di risanamento. Al posto delle mura trecentesche che circondavano la città furono creati i viali di circonvallazione, sulla riva sinistra fu creato il Viale dei Colli, un sentiero alberato che con i suoi otto chilometri, si snoda conducendo verso la bellissima collina di San Mini- ato. TuscanyPeople.com - People and Stories from #Tuscany 2 Piazzale Michelangelo Proprio al termine del Viale dei Colli fu realizzato il Piazzale Michelangelo.

Day 1, Friday September 22, 2017
Florence Sample Itinerary Day 1, Friday September 22, 2017 1: Breakfast and flowers at La Ménagère (Cafe) Address: R, Via de' Ginori, 8, 50123 Firenze FI, Italy About: Part café, part florist, La Ménagère is definitely Instagram worthy.
