Abstract
Halfway between the hospital model and holiday camps, the Seaside Hospices born and developed in the course of fifty years, on the edge of the historic city and the new resort districts. Sometimes they had a flywheel effect on new urban expansions, sometimes they hampered the development of villas for aristocrats and bourgeois. The establishments for the prevention and treatment of scrofulous children aim to hygiene and functionality of spaces and services, freeing-looking sad and prison of hospitals. The anonymous designers bestowed only minimal attention to the building envelope. The paper aims to focus on the urban impact of Seaside Hospices on the Romagna coast, on their features as well as on the events that have seen their rise between 1870 and 1913.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
