1. Palatino: Il Giardino dei Farnese / The Palatin Hills: the Farnese Garden Marker
1. Le Uccelliere Farnesiane
2. Il Labirinto
L'abbandono trasformo il Palatino in un paesaggio agreste, con campi e vigne. Alla meta del XVI secolo la famiglia Farnese volle creare delle aree a giardino, luoghi di riposo e piacere. Il giardino era composto da gelsomini, rose, arance amare, gelsi e olmi e organizzato su terrazze con ninfei fontane e due uccelliere (1) in posizione simmetrica che formavano il prospetto monumentale verso l'ingresso. La sistemazione attuale e opera di Giacomo Boni (1859-1925).
1. The Farnesian Aviaries
2. The Labyrinth
Abandonment and neglect turned the Palatine Hill into a rural landscape of fields and vineyards. In the mid-sixteenth century the Farnese family had some of its areas devoted to gardens, places of rest and pleasure. The Farnese Gardens featured jasmine, roses, bitter oranges, mulberries and elms. They were arranged on terraces with nymphaemus, fountains and two aviaries (1) placed symmetrically wich formed the monumental facade towards the entrance, the current arrangement is the work of Giacomo Boni (1859-1925).
