Abstract

The island of Nisida houses the Institute Criminal juvenile, located in a building of the thirties of the last century. Below this building are preserved ancient local Bourbon, recently the subject of excavation conducted by the current prison administration. The Memorandum of Understanding for cultural activities and research signed in March 2014 between the Department of Architecture and Industrial Design "Luigi Vanvitelli" of the Second University of Naples and the Department of Juvenile Justice of the Ministry of Justice (Italy) has the aim to promote studies to analyze the material sources and to propose the scientific survey of some buildings recently brought to light. The disciplines of the survey and the representation of the built and natural environment have provided an opportunity for knowledge and documentation of reality. This documentation assumes importance as a valuable starting point for any proposed enhancement and it allows architecture to reveal otherwise unknown to most. The survey campaign of the building housing the juvenile Criminal Institute was launched in March 2014 with the correlation of scientific scholars of the history of the island. To date they have been brought to light some rooms below and a staircase leading to the courtyard. This will allow structural and architectural survey will allow to understand whether the current foundations rest on a convent or a Roman villa.
