On the afternoon of May 22, a part of the wall of Palazzo Bartolini Salimbeni (in Florence), precisely at the corner of Via Portarossa and Piazza Santa Trinita, came loose. Firefighters immediately intervened to remove the unsafe parts and bring the entire wall back to safety. Fortunately, there were no injuries.
Palazzo Bartolini Salimbeni is an important late Renaissance building located between Piazza Santa Trinita and Via Tornabuoni, in front of the Justice Column. For the past few months, the palace, which is privately owned, has housed part of the Casamonti collection, which is open to the public and can be visited.
