The mayor of Rome, Roberto Gualtieri, said last Tuesday (8) that a possible charge for tickets to the Trevi Fountain, one of the most popular monuments in the Italian capital, would cost no more than two euros (R$12).

The statement comes a day after the City Hall announced that it will take advantage of a cleaning project at the fountain to test a controlled access system on a walkway that will be set up to allow visits during the period of work, estimated to last three months.

The expectation is that, after the cleaning, Rome will begin to limit the number of visitors to the lower part of the Trevi Fountain, although Gualtieri assures that the square where the monument is located will remain freely accessible.

“We will look into creating the ticket because it is an experiment. We will see, for example, if a lot of hostesses are needed, so it might make sense to introduce a small charge of one or two euros,” the mayor told Sky TG24.

“In the first few months, there will be no tickets. There will only be a capacity limit, and then we will study whether or not it makes sense [to charge for access],” Gualtieri highlighted.

According to the City of Rome, the Trevi Fountain receives 10 to 12 visitors per day, which means around 4 million per year. (HANDLE)
