The Municipality of Trieste has announced the closure of its enclosed public gardens on Monday, January 13, citing adverse weather conditions. This precautionary measure comes in response to a forecast of severe weather expected to impact the city and surrounding areas.
The closures will affect several of the city’s most frequented green spaces, including the “de Tommasini” Garden on Via Giulia, the “Falcone e Borsellino” Garden in Altura, and the historic Villa Revoltella. Despite the shutdown, access to the church within Villa Revoltella will remain available during its usual hours.
Other affected locations include:
- Basevi Garden
- “Fra M.V. Antollovich” Garden on Via Carpineto
- “Wanda e Marion Wulz” Garden on Via Catullo
- “Fedora Barbieri” Garden on Via Mascagni
- Gardens on Via San Michele and Campagna Prandi
- Villa Cosulich Garden on Strada del Friuli
- Villa Engelmann Garden on Via Chiadino
- Bazzoni Park on Via Navali
- Skatepark on Via Petitti di Roreto
- Gardens on Piazza Hortis, Vicolo dell’Edera, and Via Molino a Vento
- Maddalena Garden on Via Costalunga
The garden at Villa Sartorio on Via dei Modiano will remain open but only for staff performing essential work on-site.
Local authorities are urging residents to exercise caution and avoid outdoor areas during the anticipated storm. The closures serve as a reminder of the challenges posed by winter weather in this Adriatic city, known for its Bora winds and dramatic weather shifts.
