Too often we hear rumors about the cancellation, or rather demolition of some buildings that are part of our history. In the past
Ravarino citizens have witnessed the transformation of the former town hall in what is now the ex-patient and the transfiguration of the "house Beam" People in a building, now unrecognizable, located across from the church square, once equipped with turret, porch and terrace.

Ravarino, Via Roma - Former Town Hall and then ex-patient in the same building as we see today.

Not to mention the renovation of the elementary school, from building a rationalist, modern building has been altered in the "Aldo Rossi" in blue, complete with a Pencil on the tower, then we could say, and thankfully, eliminated .

Because of this method to intervene on our heritage, rather permissive and liberal, you lost a wonderful marble portal, used by us ex students to pass through the door of the elementary school.
Over the years many other things have been done without obtaining the architectural quality that they are supposed to work with high public value, except the last action of the school of painting, which finally has given a proper dignity.
Some private actions to recover historic buildings, built in Ravarino, however, are noteworthy. We may cite, for example, the recovery of the former extension agricultural consortium, now the National Bank of San Felice sul Panaro, or the building that houses the headquarters of CNA Ravarino (property Ferrari). Interventions has been maintained and enhanced body building located on Via Roma, then expanded and developed on the back.
also the building that surrounds Villa Peden, while completely replaced in the structures proposed in the volumes, the plaster and color in a building properly placed in the context of the Villa.
not forget the restructuring of the Municipal Office, which has preserved the original building, tearing down the former cinema to make way for the multipurpose hall, the Hall Council and many other spaces.
Thanks to this different mode of action of the historical memory can be saved without giving up new spaces.
Breaking down is not always the right solution!
Now there is talk of recovery or abatement of the former kindergarten or elementary school branches, buildings owned by the City of Ravarino.
Ravarino, Via Roma, pictured the former asylum
OBVIOUS!
It would do much to knock them down first, so you create lots of empty and no constraints on which, perhaps (and ironically), a bunch of real estate speculators would design a new building, with a nice curved roof, both of fashion, with the excuse that respects all the canons of energy saving and anti-seismic regulations, which could be incorporated in Ravarino very well, but also in Palermo Trento or, failing identity, not returning at all the history of the place and not in promoting the maintenance time a sense of belonging to a community.
But did you know that energy saving is also achieved with interventions on the existing, plus being able to qualify for the incentives of 55%?!
decide not to kill could involve small local small businesses, those able to recover a court to restore battered or a painted ceiling, reducing the number of real estate speculators and entrepreneurs.
Our country has a historical center, is defined as "passing" and "boundary" with the Province of Bologna and someone should ask how I managed to develop and grow over time.
Maybe because we are almost in the center of a triangle (Modena, Bologna, Ferrara)?!
will be for our long ancient history?! Or why
Ravarino was in a castle?!
Or simply because there was a "Moro wrong," the Via Romea?!
Of course there is not much strength to forget and erase, fortunately there is the Master Lodi, with its valuable research reminds us daily of our roots!
We no longer want to erase, it is not right!
The former asylum is part of the story of Ravarino and is included in a beautiful setting: church, rectory, bell tower and the old church of San Rocco. What we put in its place? A building plastered and painted, perhaps with a few insert masonry face view and why not, wall aged!
As they were made by the thousands.
Or a "cage" made of iron and glass?! ... Surely
expanding the existing building with a steel structure, glass and wood or stucco structure would result in a building that preserves the identity of the place, reflecting the needs of modern society.
Elementary School Rami, like that of Casoni (just the recent recovery) is a beautiful building that lends itself to any kind of use, but not that of being shot down.
