Résumé en anglais
The ICOMOS International Scientific Committee on 20th Century Heritage (ISC20C), incollaboration with the Pier Luigi Nervi Project Association, are issuing this Heritage Alert
for the Stadio Artemio Franchi (Pier Luigi Nervi, 1929-31) in Florence, Italy. The StadioArtemio Franchi is an early and important work of Italian engineer and builder Pier Luigi
Nervi and is under imminent threat of destruction due to plans by the Municipality ofFlorence and the Fiorentina football club to build a new stadium on its site. Recent
legislation by the Italian government that relax heritage and conservation requirements areenabling these plans to move forward. ICOMOS and the Pier Luigi Nervi Project
Association are seeking an immediate halt to these plans and request that a full study beconducted to determine the existing stadium’s actual condition and what change is
necessary for its continued viability as a cultural and athletics venue.
