Abstract (in English)

In the city of Tripoli, Libya, the Green Square is a very large space that separates the city built in the last century from the older one. Probably because of the vastness of the square, the observer may have difficulty in establishing, panoramically, a visual comparison between ancient Tripoli - Medina and the Red Castle - and the more recent city that extends towards the east and south. On the contrary, the urban development to the west of the Medina, with its numerous towers, has introduced a sort of fraying to the compactness and continuity of the urban profile, thus modifying, when viewed from the sea, the visual impact that the castle maintained until a few years ago. In any case, the castle still presents, today, architectural and material characteristics that give it a special monumental prominence on the urban landscape. The idea of ​​considering the urban landscape as the basis of the first arguments on the conservation of the castle was a consequence of reading the most recent historical studies and of the careful observation of the site: the castle in the urban context.
