FAI – Fondo Ambiente Italiano’s aim is to preserve, promote and protect Italy’s rich and beautiful cultural heritage –  the monuments, the landscapes, the works of art and the archaeological sites.

It does this through education, restoration and bi-annual open days in my two favourite seasons, spring and autumn. Its 2024 ‘Spring Open Days’ run on the weekend of the 23rd & 24th of March and each of these amazing 21 venues across Abruzzo’s 4 provinces will be opening their doors for free & offering guided tours.  For those that would like to contribute there is the option to donate €3 or more if you would like to!  Every little helps in keeping this heritage in tip-top condition!
