In July 1975, a group made of architects, American artists and others gathered here. They made an attempt to draw the institutions’ attention with the operation called Save the Castle of Pissignano. After some initial expressions of interest, these potential sponsors quickly decided that, rather than being a possible goldmine, the project would require years of work, with no easy profits in sight.
So, there was the village on the one hand (or at least the idea of it), and there was the idea to save it as soon as possible on the other, because this was going to last forever. Last but not least, funds had to be found. The general opinion was that the whole thing required a lot of money.
