The Archaeological Park of Sybaris has also been flagged by Italia Nostra for inclusion in the 7 Most Endangered 2020.
This is because of recurring and unresolved problems of flooding in the Park, difficulties in the day-to-day management of the site (among all, the scarcity of funds for basic operations such as grass cutting), the recent investigation by the judiciary into the expenses for drainage trenches, and, finally, the poor accessibility of the site (no connection between the train station and the Park and ineffective road signs).
The goal of the 7 Most Endangered 2020 initiative, or the seven most endangered cultural sites in Europe, is to increase media attention and awareness of the value of Cultural Heritage among European citizens.
