FISCAGLIA (FE)

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

The camps is proposed in collaboration with the Parishes of the municipality of Fiscaglia. Fiscaglia is a municipality composed of seven hamlets of which four are significant and three are now reduced to a few houses. In total there are 8.5000 inhabitants. We are in the province of Ferrara and the last eastern offshoot of the Po Valley, between the Comacchio Valleys and the coast of the Adriatic Sea. The reality today coordinates different structures in the municipality: - The recreation centre of Massafiscaglia, the community hall of Migliaro. - the Don Tampieri retirement home in Migliaro - the seven Parish Churches and the sanctuary of the Madonna della Corba , the little church of Fiscaglia now abandoned was the chapel of the Ariosto family where the young Ludovico lived the year of preparation in view of admission to the third religious order, we would like to clean up at least the spaces around it. - 15 small flats to offer a residence at limited cost to lonely or disadvantaged people in the hamlet of Cornacervina.The arrival of the new parish priest (end of 2019) started a plan of conversation and improvements of the different environments, some to safeguard a historical heritage, others to begin a process of regulatory adaptation to make them safe and welcoming for the local community and in perspective also to other subjects. Volunteers will collaborate in the renovation and maintenance of the various structures of the ten churches.
