REALIzATION OF THE AGGREGATE OF THE “padre PROVINCIALE”
Alba Doors has taken part in the work for the recovery of the aggregate in the square delimited by Roma street, Duca degli Abruzzi boulevard, Coppito street and Pretatti road. The aggregate is located in the historic center of L’Aquila. This is one of the many treasures of L’Aquila toward the rebirth from the rubble of the earthquake of 6 April 2009.
This consists of a multitude of leaning against buildings, which make up a single set as there is continuity between the various structures. All these residence plays a particular interest. The various historical eras, which characterized the construction of these facilities, can still be seen.
After the earthquake was found a lintel of an ancient front gate on which one can be read ‘Camera del p. provile’. Researches were madewhich showed that probably this building was the seat of the “Padre Provinciale” of the Augustinian order. Hence, the name of the consortium.
