Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Una passeggiata lungo i viali del Gianicolo, diventa la rilettura di una vicenda storica
sconsciuta ai più: la storia di Righetto e Sgrullarella.
Un orfano e una randaginache dopo una vita in simbiosi, muoiono insieme nei pressi di Ponte Sisto. Difendevano la Repubblica Romana e supportavano quell'Italia che stava nascendo.
Siamo nel 1849 e dalla collina del Risorgimento, gran parte della popolazione romana,i giovani della Brigata Speranza ed un mucchio di altra gente (anche straniera) assieme a G. Garibaldi: cercano di colmare il gap con le truppe francesi chiamate da Papa Pio IX...transfuga a Gaeta.
Una pagina di Storia (si studia ancora?) che il Gianicolo continua a raccontare...ed un piccolo monumento che vuole ricordare l'eroismo di un "regazzino" dodicenne e della sua fedele meticcia.

Quasi per caso, ho scoperto il monumento a Righetto.
Oggi ricorderò la sua storia, quella di un eroe che ha sacrificato la vita a soli dodici anni.
L’epoca in cui visse è quella gloriosa che pose fine al dominio del Papa Re. Rimasto orfano molto piccolo, dovette trovare di come vivere e tirare avanti, e, oltre che a sé stesso, badava anche alla sua cagnolina, Sgrullarella, che lo seguiva ovunque andasse.
Mentre i maledetti franzosi riempivano la città di cannonate, provocando morte e devastazione, le palle che non esplodevano al suolo venivano disinnescate in gran fretta dai romani, con uno straccio bagnato che spegneva la miccia.
Quando Righetto ne vide arrivare una proprio sulla renella del Tevere vicino Ponte Sisto, come aveva fatto altre volte, si lanciò sulla granata, che però non si spense ma esplose, portandolo via assieme al suo cane.
Ora anche lui è qui, sul Gianicolo, insieme ai molti eroi garibaldini, immolatosi per Roma.

Monumento a Righettoは、1849年2月9日に革命により成立したローマ共和国とフランス軍との一連の戦いの中で、ローマを包囲したフランス軍により市内に向けて発射された大砲の砲弾を集める作業中に爆死したことから「戦争の英雄の一人」と讃えられたリゲット少年を記念する像。リゲット少年はトラステヴェリ地域で寝起きしていた12歳の孤児で、パンの配達などで小銭をもらう児童労働者の一人だったそうです。

Durante la Repubblica Romana, con la città assediata dai francesi, il piccolo Righetto, rimasto orfano e che viveva consegnando il pane a domicilio accompagnato dal suo fedele cagnolino, raccolse una palla di cannone per riconsegnarla al governo della città per riceverne un premio. La palla però esplose e dilaniò il piccolo che divenne uno degli eroi della resistenza contro i francesi.
