order to entice the reader to contribute to this kind of rescue of our best past, I will propose some examples of''''architectural jewels that are still living. Before getting to the heart of the speech, it seems appropriate to emphasize that sometimes you must not pass over in silence some property transactions, in our opinion, are likely to distort the appearance of our street, our neighborhood or country. If our protests often, unfortunately, are a battle against the windmills, and despite them, we can not completely prevent the realization of certain works a bit 'too bold, at least we can resize them or to alert owners that the commission and the companies that create them, making them aware that there are rules and there is someone who pretends to be respected. If anyone ever says anything, be appli "administrative silence" that makes possible many destructions, which then becomes useless regret, when we find them every day under the eyes. And 'that the family when we tried to do on our street in the heart of Abyssinia, in Riccione, we realized that a house was bound brewing during the restoration work, or did the owners of hotels, other activities Tourist and the same holiday-makers to see tripled the volume of the building is located in a popular restaurant in the area, which has now covered the shadow of the large garden overlooking Villa Emilia. I mean starting from this villa in this sort of walk through the homes Riccione more worthy of our admiration and "surveillance."
The Villa Emilia, built in the early decades of the 900 designed by Silvio Avondo, survived the war and remained outside, as then, a large garden overlooking the facility which recalls the nineteenth-century stately gardens of the main emiliane.Di city honor a marble fountain, on the columns of the four corners that define the boundary family coats of arms. Inside, the house was modified and was made an entrance from the terrace side Rimini. The staircase has remained as before, with curls of wrought iron in a style very popular in the Romagna. Still keeps the villa in good condition places the friezes on the ceiling, doors and Countess Henriette finestre.La Pasquini, then owner of the villa, was Honorary President of the Club Nautico Riccione, founded in 1935, Mistress Donna Rachele and figure prominent in the life of society '.
In past years we lived noble families like the Pasquini and Santarelli. Since 1989, the house is owned by the family Bologna Gualandi. From the testimonies of some of Riccione, it seems that the house was inhabited by the nuns for a time. Silvio Allegro Avondo Avondo son of Vittorio, in addition to the profession as a painter, also approaches that of an engraver.
During construction of the building, the engineer made a plate depicting the work completed in house, which was used for the circulation of a limited set of postcards to send to friends. Unfortunately, this fine specimen of the architectural plans and projects were not found in archive, Mavilla Emilia is one of the first 900 homes of the most popular and frequently appears as a subject of postcards and pictures, so that this year's Conference philatelic numismatic Rimini has chosen corporate image for the rare event that the postcard shows, never published in books and magazines, if not in my book''A Season of Liberty Riccione '', published by the publishing house Maggioli .
whole network of streets around Villa Emilia is full of small houses owned by families villegianti. Despite the years, the trends and developments in the seaside tourism, most of these houses has remained as it was then and at least deserves the honor of a citation. We'll talk next time.
