Maragliano Garden

Small but pleasant garden, managed by the San Jacopino Garden Association, which is a voluntary group of citizens who want to enhance their neighbourhood. Therefore, this space is continuously at the center of initiatives such as the Small Library (a small display case where books are voluntarily stored and borrowed), the Red Bench (in honour of women victims of violence) and there are also numerous meetings.

Via Maragliano, 19
Open: 7.30am – 7.30pm
