SS. Gervasio and Protasio bell-tower in Sondrio
Following the sudden bending of the great cross at the top of the roof in 2005, it became necessary to substitute the wooden structure and covering of the bell-tower in Sondrio.
At the same time, the belfry was reinforced.
Work was carried out at 50m height, in the central square of Sondrio with the necessity of co-ordinating works with the numerous daily and weekly activities typical of such a location.
