Why did one of the buildings of the former naval battery of Punta Giglio, in Alghero, become a wine cellar? Why is the ammunition depot, an example of military architecture, off-limits to tourist visits?
The group leader of the 5 Star Movement Maria Antonietta Alivesi asks this, pointing the finger at the Punta Giglio ecomuseum and arguing about the silence of the Superintendence.
« It was sent to the management of the Porto Conte Park, to the Department of Culture of the Municipality of Alghero, to the Archaeological, Fine Arts and Landscape Superintendence of Sassari, to the Department of Public Education, Cultural Heritage, Information, Entertainment and Sport of the Region Sardinia, a request for clarification, i.e. whether the non-usability of the ammunition depot (and other rooms) to the public is true, whether it has been duly authorized and whether the transformation into a cellar does not conflict with public enjoyment in a context historical and cultural", explains Alivesi.
«The visit to the compendium, in fact, is limited to the naval cannon emplacements, the writings in the former barracks now a restaurant, the firing range and other circular stone structures. A little little for the much vaunted "open-air museum" which does not even remotely satisfy the standard criteria and decidedly less than what could be visited before the so-called "valorization"", urges the representative of the Alghero pentastellati.
