The purpose of the "T900" project is to preserve important tombs from the 20th century in the monumental cemetery of Bologna, while creating a bridge between generations.
The Associazione Amici della Certosa di Bologna has launched the "T900" project to preserve and celebrate significant 20th-century tombs, bridging past, present, and future. Coordinated by architect Francisco Pérez Amitrano, the project involves local students, association members, and Bologna citizens in documenting and promoting these funerary monuments.
It features student-created graphics and renderings, alongside archival research and high-quality photography. This initiative, presented during the Week of Discovering European Cemeteries, aims to build a community archive and instil a sense of historical memory in young people. The project aligns with broader educational efforts on cemetery heritage through the Schools on Cemeteries project.
