Aree industriali dismesse come risorse culturali. Il caso Porto Empedocle. Abandoned industrial areas or cultural resources. The case of Porto Empedocles

Abstract

The issue of brownfields involves environmental and landscape considerations. When, as in this case, the area - Porto Empedocle - is located along the sea, along the African coast of the Sicily and a few meters from the temples Valley, everything becomes more interesting for the cultural consequences.
