Connessioni ritrovate. La rete delle torri della Calabria Ultra: mutui sguardi tra passato e presente

The Italian coastal towers, a heritage of great historical and architectural interest, are today artifacts capable of combining the form of architecture and landscape, emphasizing a backbone formed by conspicuous points, immaterial networks and material consistencies. In this context, the towers represented in the Romano Carratelli Code symbolize a heritage of certain interest as a documentary treasure that provides detailed descriptions of the toponymy of places and geometries that must have governed the arrangement of these coastal architectures along the Calabrian coast. The coastal views that the To_Know project wants to relaunch, a project financed with resources from the PNRR, are multilevel visions, linked to the narration of the materiality and immateriality of places. The narrative path, with a view to tourist use of the Calabrian coasts and aimed at different targets and different ways of travel, offers a global and systemic vision of the territory on which the architecture is located, connected to points of interest and new knowledge. Having reached the destination, that is, the tower that looks out over the horizon, it is possible to enjoy a new type of view, linked to the archival asset of the Romano Carratelli Code, capable of weaving the plots of new cultural paths.
